The Dead Don’t Celebrate (2021)


The Dead Don't Celebrate - drawing by Harvey Dog 2022

The dead don’t celebrate
superficial victories,
the game is over,
it’s time for the real shit

The dead don’t celebrate
arrogant displays of
frivolous competition,
gratuitous accumulation

The dead don’t celebrate
the approaching light,
the illusion of
permanence

The dead don’t celebrate
much of anything


Notes

  • The dead seem a tad…bummed out.
