Of Happy Rebellion

Just got introduced, via Dinosaur Comics, to the webcomic Rock, Paper, Cynic. While some of his strips are less appropriate, there are some that are quite funny:


I can't tell you how many times I've thought this, that just being content is close to the most revolutionary thing you can do, because everyone, everyone, everyone is going crazy in some small way or another. So if you could just be happy with a balloon on a cool fall day, you might just be more insurgent than Marilyn Manson, Thomas Jefferson and Ché all rolled together. Which would be a fearsome sight in and of itself.

    I think you should incorporate "if you could just be happy with a balloon on a cool fall day" into a poem.

    I was thinking about that, actually. The whole idea, in fact. Good to know that another poet thought something similar.
