Uncle History can’t get this this thing to work…

Uncle History can’t get this this thing to work
This Schopenhauer thing
This Adorno gizmo
The problem is his guts
He has disbiosis—can’t
Keep things down
Hamlet had it too
Of course the world
Is driven by unfeeling will
And tippy toe
Conformist culture
Knows what gets you off
He knows everything
And wears a serape
Of negative dialectics
Yes I do yes I do
He says
Talking to his parakeet
