I. LA: the 6 word story<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Bad day; cried in an uber<\/p>\n

II. Scroll Song<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I have the world at my fingertips and decide to<\/p>\n

scroll instead of scour<\/p>\n

like instead of love<\/p>\n

comment instead of communicate<\/p>\n

I spend the days curating not creating passion dripping from my nail beds like wet laundry set to dry<\/p>\n

on a breezy afternoon<\/p>\n

III. Cocaine Crescendo<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m sorry but no one warned me about the casualization of cocaine? I feel like I should have been warned. Notified by carrier owl? Something? Seminars have lectured me about the semiotics of materials; the human function of associating a connotation with visual apparitions. But the semiotics of snorting? That one wasn\u2019t on the syllabus, professor. The heaviness I feel in my heart when I view some seemingly decent people key coke in clandestine frat corners is a sadness akin to mourning. I know it is valid to be both subjectively and objectively upset about this. The subjective: coke is a skeleton in my family\u2019s closet, a harrowing harbinger for the demise of my mom\u2019s dad. A white prick of a substance that spiralled my brother towards psychosis. The objective? Haring coined it first. Crack is wack. If weed is a gateway drug, then I liken cocaine to a \u201chighway\u201d drug. A substance sending you zooming haphazardly down the fast lane. Destroying what you must, for the speed is insurmountable. Fatalities don\u2019t matter when you\u2019re on top of the world and a bass from a new R&B song ripples through your body as your juul hit hits, exacerbating the medley of poisons you have orchestrated in your own rendition of this conniving symphony. Oh how the crowd will coo. And how you will not hear them, your eyes making amorphous shapes of their geometric features\u2013instead pining and fixating on the illumination of those flashing lights. Look how they fucking shine for you, baby. The objective? Cocaine cannot lead to much good. Its normalization in our college culture\u2013of fast paced everything and anything\u2013is death. This is the cocaine crescendo. And like any crescendo, it will end in an eerie, finite point of silence. Utter absence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n <\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":288,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[49],"class_list":["post-2185","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-spring-2018","tag-art"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nmultimedia<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/palaver\/spring-2018\/multimedia\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"multimedia -
