music today

every time

i see

a splay of 
tattered 

old
 cassette 
tapes 

lopping around

on the side our

american highways

i find it
the most 
apt

way to summarize

the failed music industry

of today

as they hold onto 
tatters of the past

while the now and future

blaze along with 
digital precision

at the

speed of a sonic

boom

that woke all of 
us years

back while 
the big record execs

sit in their posh

high rises with 
thick headphones on 
trying to hear

the next note on another

album that won't 
hit

a

sales

quota.
