Things I Like (2019 Remaster)

Things I Like - Propagandhi

I like Kurt Russel as Captain Ron

Grace Under Pressure on

In almost any circumstance

I like dark planetariums

I like when she wears them

Low-cut shirts and yoga pants

I like unbroken snow

On lodgepole pine boughs

The rusty pump of

A jay's forest communiqué

And I like a rowdy f**kin' Pride parade

I like how Hedges tells it like it is

I like the sciences

I like profound mysteries

I like The Supremes

You Can't Hurry Love

And the emergence of competing histories

And I like the Maple Leafs

'Cuz they remind me of me:

Inconsistent fragile internationally reviled

I like allegories Cinderella stories

Ahow ndinawemaaganiidog

Kete-Anishinaabeg gii-soongide' ewag

Kii-gichi-anokiiwag kii-jiikendamoog

Aapijii iinzan kii-chikinaagoziwag

Kete-anishinaabeg ogii-wiidookaawiiwaa

Shaaganaashiiwag

Gegoo wiin wiikaa oniikesiidaa

Pizaaniigo nagamok Nagamok isina

I like speculative fiction: dark narratives

Of the future that looms

Of our impending doom
