"My witness is the empty sky"- Jack Kerouac


Cool kids love trends...
Especially the trends that were from the past decade.
You must live under some mossy rock if you haven't
Noticed how people have resurrected dead subcultures.
Only if for the sake of a groovy Halloween costume

While you pass a gaggle of greasers or herd of hippies, You can't help but think, "Wow, like grandma and gramps!"

Then there are people posing as punks and garish goths like your mother and father
And in the corner making out with some blonde, Timmy Football star is Wearing a ripped flannel à la Grunge his brother loaned him

Maybe one day, my own kid will ransack the attic looking for my old clothes to make a "hipster costume"
They'll giggle as they put on a tattered Neff beanie and Clear lens Wayfarers and head out to trick or treat while I feel like a suburban sell-out, since my generation is Purchasable at Party City for $39.99 plus tax.
