End of the 90s /Part 2
If i was unsettled at the end of
the 1990s, it was because of
withdrawl + dependancy.
I felt close to music, to
fashion, art, to people, and i
sought close contact with them,
addicted to inspiration,
just like a single end of day
spliff. I knew always that it was
no good for me, that i should
try to cut it out & avoid adverts
+ themetunes, try to dislocate
myself from 'my generation',
but my motives were never
really strong enough: i was excited
i wanted to watch the next big thing
happen, and to say that i had
witnessed it, heard it, felt it,
understood it, and said
yes, i feel that is right,
right for now.
But then nothing really came along,
Nothing was ever accurate to those times.
Nothing defined the hours
sat at a grafittied desk
in Worthing at my mum & dads house
at the end of the millenium
inventing a new fashion label:
i expected far more than was ever delivered.
