Peach Klimkiewicz: Don’t talk
Don’t talk
Don’t talk of gender
or of sex.
Don’t talk of science
at all events.
Don’t talk of him.
Don’t talk of me.
Don’t stand for
masculinity.
Don’t talk ideas.
Don’t ask for proof.
Don’t be so brash
to ask for truth.
Don’t talk of drugs
or family.
Just bark the word
“Equality!”
Don’t talk free speech
or liberty.
Just bark the word
“Diversity!”
Don’t talk about
South Africa.
You shut your mouth!
Don’t act bizarre.
Don’t talk about
the media
or Marxist
academia.
Don’t think it through.
Don’t be that chump.
Just sing along
to “I hate Trump!”
Just do what you’re
supposed to do.

There is no you.
There is no God.
There was no Fall.
In fact, you’d best
not talk at all.
