The Re-Mix

The re-mix is always a disfigured song.
It is a cancer of sorts in the body-politic.
It appropriates what is already settled.

It is by definition a scheme
For the degradation;
A two-faced symbiotic which, 
For the knowing ear,
Can only go awry.

Let there be a collabo,
But not a re-mix.
One is plainly one too many,
For a song.

It spoils the broth,
As in that old adage.
It debases,
Turning art into craft.
