The Art of Deconstructing

I saw it in a magazine,  

on a gloomy indoors night.  

The art of deconstructing;    

  I read the article.  

It took things apart,  

but didn't place them 

back together.  

Deconstructing,  

where taking apart  

someone's soul  

becomes as easy as 

unscrewing a box. 

Deconstructing, 

we take each part and 

lay it tidily over a white table.  

And we do too,  

deconstruct.  

Like children unhappy  

of their building blocks masterpiece, 

we 

fall 

apart. 

Everything we ever thought  

we were goes away 

with a blow of the wind.  

We dissect our minds,  

and become like all the others,  

broken,       

empty.  

We deconstruct and build  

ourselves upon society's

stereotypes.  

We mow our lawn 

of personality,  

all of our flowers 

gone.  

Crushes, smashes,  

sounds of death.  

We have become  

like all the others.  

The art of deconstructing,  

or as they call it,  

the Art of tiding up.

Lol I don't think many know what you're talking about, luckily I know you're speaking about deconstruction. A method used by the writer William Burroughs.
