The Revolution Will Not Be Simonized

Drabbled Out

By Kendall Defoe Published 5 months ago 1 min read
Those were the days

The revolution...

...will not bring your vehicle to a high and glossy sheen so that you can show it off to all your friends on Friday or Saturday night.

The revolution...

...will not enter the language just because a company was clever enough to come up with a word that rolls off the tongue like Kleenex, Q-Tips, or Band-Aids.

The revolution...

...will not be used on your furniture or floors just because you no longer think it is the trend to only make that vehicle of yours look its best.

The revolution...

...will not explain itself. It is too slick!
