Subnormal is...

Below the topsoil, bottom feeder
Filling the underbelly of society.
Down, out, and proudly second-class
Grounded in truth. Broadcast in low fidelity.

Subnormal is...

A replacement for all your home-cooked meals.
A newfangled way to dress up your hand-me-downs.
A proxy for all that could have been but never was.
A lick when all you asked for was a taste.
