Reviewing thoroughly
the history of creativity
down through the centuries
we can state conclusively
nothing is new anymore
All that is done today
has been done
by somebody
somewhere before
Word erosion blurs
and eventually erases
previous creative proclamations
which resurface eventually
in the posts of new generations
Fake fresh inspirations
run through today's hype machine
as the next BIG thing
but...
if you Google scroll
deep into the bowels
of transcribed history
you will see
today's genius masterpiece
is but a shiny refurbished toy
with a fresh coat of paint
Hell this poetic concept
you just read through
is nothing new
Tis a rebooted version of me
from a yesterday dream
originally cyber seen
in December 2014
We eventually plagiarize our own stuff
if we manage to live long enough
