A Masked Requiem for a Virulent Era
A cold berating
light-erasing rope
survives
relentless
entropy
(another year ends
another variant contends)
Desolate debris in
empty
erroneous caves
swallow
blank pages
submerged in
mind-warping seas
where flying memes
wait for normalcy
where words freeze
& thoughts
become sadistic
(a poisoned (out of mind) mind
crawls on the radar)
Trapped
in a gray tomb:
the inert inerrants
flounder in
a mephistic stench
expecting no mercy from
theocreptilian overlords
not really
here/there/or somewhere
(humanoid insects
loiter in scarred streets
awaiting
a comedic deluge)
A symphony composed
by the Great Alpha Dog:
a transfixed audience
staring at a monotonous Monolith
in a cold nocturnal
past/present/future wherein
3 homicidal HALs dwell
along with
one serene Star-Child
singing:
daisy dazy dada adad
(in a masked requiem)
Earth:
a disastrous
dithering hologram
discombobulated by
collapsed singularities
losing time
waiting for deliverance
from devolution
waiting for Sir Godot
as vituperative viruses
inherit the wind
This will end in the end:
a cosmic tragic dream
of infinite periods pointing to
pugilistic demigods swimming
in an illuminated lake of illuminati
near the careless trees in the breeze
populated by a Counterclockwise Orange
led by the
Four Jackasses
of the apocalyptic
Anticlimax
