Established Marvel : a Monk by Abbreviation

62. A SORT OF HEMINGWAY IN DIRGE:

Looking with today's eyes I can see that the cumulative effects of low quality are deadening and that the mass of men are now engrossed in layers upon layers of low-quality - habits of listening style food thought and reference - things which have been destroyed and diluted down to a mere modicum of supposed self and presence and which in spite of all else have been accepted as a new 'norm' - something like the old nugget of 'defining down' something and all of this and its effects already present will just build and become the newer fabric of society and the make-up of the times being set for the next downward shift again - sort of ad infinitum - until something occurs : revolution malcontent discontent furious violence ribald distractedness and a rabid lashing out unto self-destructiveness and wanton decay and there's nothing to be done about it and nothing ever will be done.
