Poem
Though no political pundit, nevertheless... I trumpet the withdrawal of democratic contender from out the presidential race. Breaking headline news story courtesy rumor monger premieres showcasing emphatic groundswell against feeble minded incumbent. Extraordinary turn of current events immediately enlivens the United States populace injecting much needed lively discussion about gerontocracy deliberating for the electorate. Though ill suited for any storied role in American government yours truly (a sexagenarian) could vouchsafe for entrusting the beleaguered state of the union in the hands of a qualified female or male candidate born within Generation X Born 1965–1980. Upon growing national groundswell of alarm agonizing, capitalizing, eulogizing, galvanizing, initializing, jeopardizing, polarizing... voters (née namely citizens) of United States plus capital one, buzzfeeding learned folks linkedin courtesy webbed wide world, an earthshaking crisis emboldens an erstwhile average joe (biden his time) suddenly chose to loose his humble opinion across the Internet to affect an immediate emergency session of government officials to address inexorable lurch toward absolute zero democracy, which liaison of Democrats and Republicans necessitates closed door session to resolve and allay the shear madness lurking within the outer limits of the fast approaching twilight zone where dark shadows creep toward utter chaos, cuz our country tis of thee teeters on the brink of the astute heads of state, and even popular stars in the limelight beseech, implore, and knead the malleable consciences of sensible sons and daughters genealogically linkedin to storied personalities fomenting the American Revolution. Outright riots promise to spill blood and sacrifice the lives of at least one anonymous worthy wordsmith, (who might possibly be an English Major incarnate) in tandem with militant posses submerging the land of the free and home of the brave into anarchy already terroristic subterfuge rallies quintessential pronouncement hinting quacking ducks lined in a row where progostigation of dystopian future impossible mission to detail a scenario one cannot even conjure from an overactive imagination such as mine flirtation with the Brave New World already reflecting the absence of freedoms. Not much effort required to hypothesize severe limitations and even harsh measures taken against me for merely sharing a what if scenario barely even approximating fallout from writing something so passé as the following. Haint no walk in the (Linkin) Park (like back in the day during the twenty fourth year of the twenty first century), I remember fondly as a sexagenarian - shooting the breeze on many a temperate mid summer nights dream, or later at four after midnight nodding off to sleep listening to deep sleep music courtesy scouring youtube then mostly free from the electronic eyes of the government, cuz soon sophisticated spyware - linkedin with augmented/ virtual reality and microchips incorporating sensors record critical nodes' details traversed by each bit, where computer hackers given free license to explore weaknesses within system of the down. Afterwards rigorously tested apps courtesy south of the borders penned up (think veritable sweatshop) preschoolers, or applications put thru their paces by kindergarteners similarly encaged laboring with their collective cute button noses to the grindstone sunup to sundown exception made for little fingers reprieve come holidays or birthday of product tester prior to software being installed on every machine sold for personal use) - ultimately allowed (rather mandated) by fiat and enabled a self declared autocrat to obtain covert information about another's computer activities by transmitting data covertly from their hard drive - espying websites visited accumulating treasure trove of data - possibly unwittingly hitting the bullseye when subtly targeting and ingeniously lampooning agent provocateur cleverly communicating hidden messages subsequently courtesy from said wiseacre.
