The Planned Community

keeping the rest of us locked out the community planned is the building of the little kingdoms all equipped with their walls & if they could afford it, get the permits, you know they’d have a moat to beat the band--- no doubt jealous of the richer, whose money has lead them out to the international waters so they can have their islands away from the laws that **** the rest of us, no doubt jealous of the richer, who fly up to the space stations, under the guise of a special space endeavor, making a new place to live, sketching out the new empire so as to avoid the radiation poisoning & inevitable mutations that the rest of us will get to cash in when the nukes come a flying left & right from one madman to the next--- with white picket fences & strict notions of behavior, with a neighborhood watch lined inside with rifles declared just under the 2nd (while still paying private security--- can’t have enough guns after all), this is the wave of somebody’s future, just not yours or mine.
