Poem
When civilization begins to crumble, it's gonna end with a crash The sound is gonna be loud: Big Bang! Everything swirling down the toilet drain The first crashing sound is the financial markets plummeting to the ground Those banks are gonna be closed, no money coming out of those teller windows You won't have access to your cash, that's when things start to dissolve real fast People still gotta eat, don't they? Riots in the streets when workers don't get their pay But the worst ain't even got started yet this Doomsday Police creating deadly restriction zones, main roads blocked with combat drones The dreadlock man on the corner with the crazy sign ... seems like he knew all along Now toss in a health crisis too Pestilence ... more than a few People getting sick and dying Quarantines start to rise, as the health care industry collapses Whole cities, globally, fall into the abyss Looking like a zombie apocalypse, machines bulldozing bodies off of cliffs into pits below The specter of extinction exponentially begins to grow What set all this disaster in motion? This ominous sound came first, even before the colossal fall of the Wall Street church: Radioactive echoes of war Third generation cold fusion bombs burst Nuclear piss melting the earth Sent everything spinning off its axis, like falling dominoes: Technological destructive progression Financial systemic oppression Pandemic genetic regression Then a massive EM pulse from the sun sent tremors to everyone, everywhere Civilization comes grinding to a halt, when mankind was sitting in the electric chair But who flipped the switch on Doomsday? Killing all the computers, satellites and cell phones And the dreadlock man on the corner with the crazy sign ... looks like he wasn't wrong
