A Trite Nihilistic Occasion - Part One

This doodling Yankee (boot noah dandy) 
doth newt lack chutzpah, 
tries to finagle Fitbit fitting figurative footwear, 
that ideally Fitzhugh 
like custom made glove snugly, 
terrifically, unequivocally matching, 
thence handily solving Finger hut issue, 
when or if arctic blasts cold 
doggedly enveloped Gaea, 

whence  humans analogously held hostage 
linkedin among fellow Earthlings freezing, 
frost bitten, gangrenous hominids
scurrying haphazardly searching vainly 
from shelter ring sky (with mother's little helper)
each primate scrambling 
(as unrepentant, recalcitrant outlier) 
once (what seems millenniums ago) livingsocial
jackknifed habitat fractured, 

essentially damning Crispr bungled ambition
grist for raconteur spewing sought aide 
telling tales amidst the mill by  Ponderosa Pine
drawing a crowd of curious onlookers, 
who forewent idling away time structured existence, 
thus, nary a clock watcher weathering whims 
as mother nature doth channel
capriciously, felicitously, 
and indubitably stripped away 

bow ring pastime asper watching paint dry
now tis each man, woman and child to 
(seeketh dale and hill) to duff fend themselves
whereat mortality will steal immoral majority linkedin 
encapsulated, housed, kindled 
within luxurious faux existence 
capitalistic dreams engendered existence fleeced 
devoid of featherbed, indeed mollycoddled memories
yanked wherein current rank and file 

endowing superlative creature comforts
reduce wretched survivors scant band of bare naked ladies
beastie boys, foo fighters espying counting crows
ready to buzzfeed toe kin *****sapiens 
bereft, expunged, faux invincibility kickstarting 
learning basic survival skills
forced to rescind twenty first century trappings
shifting paradigm sans primacy 
pitting dishabille helpless imps against killers
who do not shrink from ethically principled 

but give full reign to selfish callous deleterious foibles, 
gruesome harmful indiscretions 
sprouting with mushroom rhizome rapidity
ousting the  omnipresently 
(well nigh since time immemorial 
virtues cultivated, futilely integrated, lending oomph 
residentially, scientifically tendering ubiquitous DNA
foisting gabled, heralded, instilled, 

justified kneaded love thy neighbor motto
lyft ting in one fell swoop delicately 
embroidered, finely graven, heavenly ideals
no more patent leather shoes reflecting up
nor doodling Yankee staking claim to fame via feathered cap made of macaroni
thus such jingoistic, holistic, fabric ripped retroactively 
ramping atavistic simian base, 
thus leveling the playing field.
