Levi's Ad - banned in the UK

Levi's new Go Forth campaign has been banned in the UK. The ad kind of romanticises rioting so has been postponed - bad timing for their release!

Now is our time, go forth.

The ad features Charles Bukowski's poem 'The Laughing Heart'

The Laughing Heart

Your life is your life

don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.

Be on the watch.

There are ways out.

There is a light somewhere.

It may not be much light but

it beats the darkness.

Be on the watch.

The gods will offer you chances.

Know them.

Take them.

You can’t beat death but

you can beat death in life, sometimes.

And the more often you learn to do it,

the more light there will be.

Your life is your life.

Know it while you have it.

You are marvelous

the gods wait to delight in you.
