2020

Gleaming gadgets galore...
Aquarius is speaking new lore.

Drive-thru getting longer
Hunger pains growing stronger

Pleasurable engagements and easing pain on fleek
Mindless stimuli and opioids we seek

Civil unrest amid quarantine
Masks coming off, no buffers between

Loud is getting louder
Apathy growing dour

Watermelons without seeds in abundance
DNA heisting and genetic gold cumbrance 

My vision is crystal clear 
2020: a year of fear

Yep...challenging times. Hate those seedless watermelons. The texture and taste just doesn't do it for me. Well said my friend.
