Silent Manifesto (based on Nick Prombino)



I the person had problems like anybody else.
Tired of never having any money,
wondering where my life would take me,
what kind of future will I have,
will I have enough money.
When will I have children,
when will I get married,
I wonder if he’ll have money.

I the person like anybody else had problems.
Am I good person, do my friends think
I’m a good person. Are my friends good people?
Do I have good friends, am I a good friend?
Do I need to lose weight, should I look more like her?
Do I like how I look, what do other people think?

While I the author have different problems like,
what will I write about next?
Will it work, will it flow?
Will it be liked and will I sound smart?
Have I included enough themes and imagery,
and complementary syntax and metre?
What is metre again?
Have I thought enough, have I thought too much?
Is my writing any good, are my classmates better than me?
So I the author wants to talk and silence
I the person.
