Defying Chronos
In interdependence
Not a short-term one-bed with exhausting prices that never rest, just waits recurse from the next to the next
The background of infrastructures urges to move into our perspective
Their fragility felt
Why aren't you able to conform, or stand in-line
To the avocado that came from the other side of the planet ‘perfectly ripe just for u’
If this Machine is so clearly bleeding out
Impossible to quit (why would you even want that, they would say)
The truth is that chrono-capitalism is incompatible with crip life
And turning it into pain stoked values
As if we lived just to be exhausted
Burning something you can't hold
Chronophagy
Between endless growth and the cracks we survive in
They were embedded with the concept of ease
Bodies so perfect that shitting and fucking are mere performances
Histories like wounds are stitched in time
But between the price hikes and the quiet despair
I was a body
Lying flat
A world so fast we can’t really exist
Because futures mean to leave us behind
We will keep being here
Co-existing in our own crip times
Cultivating spaces that orients us in terms it could never articulate
Time frozen for some
Because life affirmation costs too much
Seeking coziness over efficient profits
As if we give up being rested, just to be consumed
As if liberation could ever arrive from infinite growth
and the narcissistic logics of neoliberalism
Belonging is at the edge of its collapse
When there’s nothing left but slow afternoons to live in
The pace of life splintered like glass
Shattering ableist complacency
Over a crip horizon
- the clouds feeling cozyyyyyy for once
