(Cult)iVAtioN

By NarcissusNarcosis

Born of the Night
we dress in our own darkness
cultivating, always growing
we're ripe for the harvest
cannot resist it
get a doctor
cuz we're
iNfeCteD
with
the
SicKNesS
catch this, your mind is now twisted..
join us or be possessed
and we break our possessions.
We don't burn books
we kill librarians
Think you're better? Call me the Contrarian...
So much intelligence
it's evident we only strive for excellence
words flowing with elegance
those opposed are irrelevant...

Let us entertain you
we seek to impress and amuse
depress and be recluse
be best and stay aloof...
Stroke our own egos?
We get better and make you do it for us
get ready to sing our chorus
our bubbles can never bust
our skills will never rust
we're sharp enough
to make you lust...

Don't be scared, come one, come all
fall in love with our words
we promise it won't hurt...
well, only a litle...
the pain is extra motivation
So eNjoY,
this is (CuLt)iVatioN...

A former member wrote: "We don't burn books / we kill librarians"--yeah, that's pretty inspired, right there. This was obviously quite the big deal, but since I missed out on that party, I'm instead dying to know what the title means, 'cus, um, admittedly I've been trying to figure out what the significance of the capitalization represents for awhile, but no luck. So maybe a little birdy will sing a bird song on the subject. Favorite line: "cuz we're infected with the sickness / catch this your mind is now twisted." Just can't resist. But "our skills will never rust / we're sharp enough" is a pretty special one too. You harness those double meanings like a pro--always nodding to a steely finish . . .

Another sharp-edged simile with a satirical slant, well-hewn, and we grow like weeds! Cheers
