Untitled Drabble

They didn't teach me about Puebla in school. Nothing about Hip-Hop culture. I read Allen Ginsburg and Zora Neale Hurston on my own. Didn't learn to change a tire. Have that same learned helplessness as the women I wonder at who don't pump their own gas. I'm not trying to appropriate, just compensate. I'm always behind the trends. No, I haven't read that book. I haven't heard that band. I read the headline, but not the story. I can't relate to you using the means of your favorite TV show. I'm excited about the movie everyone forgot 2 years ago.
