CULT OF THE CARROT

By Julian Workman

Word on the Street Issue 40, February 2024

. . .

The carrot asks for your time, it asks for your submission, for your intelligence, for you.

The carrot wants your time, it wants your submission, your intelligence, and you.

The carrot asks if “you want food, shelter?”

But The carrot never provides, it only wants.

It will sway to entertain, but never give.

The carrot exists only as long as the dangler’s needs are fulfilled.
