Fundamental Nihilism




A core of nothing essential,
spinning around a void of irrelevance
Molten thoughts of lava movements ...
civilization crumbling, sand castles dissolving
Vesuvius pleasure nodes vibrating 
to the sound of igneous deconstruction
The societal matrix bond unraveling ...
all the colorful banner ants on the genome farm
keep gathering more excess technology to store
in fortified tunnel shelters underground
Nuclear apocalypse harvest is near — 
Fundamental nihilism is the last philosophical dark frontier,
standing on the abyss precipice of global disintegration fear
Desiring to embrace tsunami waves of destruction
is the sulfuric surfer foundation bored
Silver reprobate riders of the rising crest,
heading to the scorched shores of emptiness
Nothingness is worshiped as cleansing entropy purity,
such is the amoral fundamental nihilism belief
Disorder is the thermal dynamic energy,
the core of chaos spinning into extinction — 
Devolving in the primordial cosmic sea
But, no existential worries ... voter worms
will choose a queen to egg spread abject antipathy
As the temporal birds of prey
fly on the antiquity winds of anti-gravity ...
Claw crushing the DNA of humanity,
erasing all that was ... and will ever be
Behold the terrifying lying dream 
of the evil fundamental nihilism belief

There is so much about this poem that is magnetic. Spooky times we are entering, "As the temporal birds of prey fly on the antiquity winds of anti-gravity"...I wonder if Australia will avoid it all, I am glad in a way, I am here and not living in the U.S. so much disarray over there - it's alarming; but we are all together in what is making it's final arrival in our world. This poem is sheer 'genius'. Amazing delivery. Thank you F.R. Jnr.
