Banksy on Advertisers
“People are taking the piss out of you...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lcoezlGotF1qaqu94o1_r1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Banksy on Advertisers&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it. They are “The Advertisers” and they are laughing at you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You, however, are forbidden to touch them. Trademarks, intellectual property rights and copyright law mean advertisers can say what they like wherever they like with total impunity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fuck that. Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.” — Banksy&lt;/p&gt;

Jack's Diner</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Slaving from dish to dish &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Running, back and forth&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So much endurance&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To deal with mad heads&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Out of town or from in town (Regular)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Happy, grumpy, talking or not&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our lips, fingers, words and eyes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Defacing this place (Established 1955)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I mean, &amp;#8220;What don&amp;#8217;t we understand-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;about high 60&amp;#8217;s in the afternoon?&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;We must have someone speak for us all&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How could you order for yourself?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I would love so much, more&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;than anything else, to &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;interact with these people, and &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;try to help them with their problems&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;And I would break down crying (most likely&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;inebriated) For these people , who&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I live with on this planet&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But my tears will not cleanse any soul&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;These beautiful women come from all over&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To work here, here&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Where it is steady to work&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Where the refills of coffee are endless&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Where I enter at 2:00 am&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;buzzed or blazed &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://howdoyouwhywhat.tumblr.com/post/2649230144</link><guid>http://howdoyouwhywhat.tumblr.com/post/2649230144</guid><pubDate>Sat, 08 Jan 2011 02:52:52 -0500</pubDate><category>poetry</category><category>society</category></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lefpoiTFzE1qfk7gwo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://howdoyouwhywhat.tumblr.com/post/2578455918</link><guid>http://howdoyouwhywhat.tumblr.com/post/2578455918</guid><pubDate>Mon, 03 Jan 2011 01:50:40 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Reading Poetry</title><description>&lt;p&gt;When you read poetry, do the words sink?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do the words weigh into your eye balls &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Or, does every sound seem to sink like quicksand &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fading away while loosing breath&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;falling asleep in bed recognizing what the inside of your eye lids look like&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Connecting to every word written&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;seen by my eyes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Feeling the emotion of every word written&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;seen by my eyes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These letters (poems) seep into my skin&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Call to my brain, saying&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;You know this, You know &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;what to do.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://howdoyouwhywhat.tumblr.com/post/2552015133</link><guid>http://howdoyouwhywhat.tumblr.com/post/2552015133</guid><pubDate>Sat, 01 Jan 2011 03:47:25 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Sitting on a black couch</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Your ears do not hear me&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our mouths do not speak &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To eachother&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It will be weeks&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That are lost in our lives&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Turning them into all of the years&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lost to argument, Unforgiven &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Making us weaker individuals&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To eachother&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You told me what to do if i had nothing nice to say&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(Don&amp;#8217;t say anything at all&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(this is why we do not speak much)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And still,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Your ears will not hear me&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our mouths will not speak&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What have you had to teach?&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://howdoyouwhywhat.tumblr.com/post/2492964749</link><guid>http://howdoyouwhywhat.tumblr.com/post/2492964749</guid><pubDate>Mon, 27 Dec 2010 23:59:18 -0500</pubDate><category>personal</category><category>poetry</category><category>family</category></item></channel></rss>
