For all the 'MAGAteers' and rampant conspiracy
Theory idiots running amuck, consider this:
If all is not what it seems ... why do you believe
In those fraudulent extremes?
Is it because Q-Anon says so and it gets repeated
By the church choir?
Or do the answers feed your anxiety,
Like kindling to a bonfire?
Now if you're compelled to some original thought,
Take a moment to maybe look under some rocks.
Listen to the mass of reality, not just those
Crazy like a fox,
Because the bloodhounds of truth are closing fast,
And what is circling above, are hungry hawks.
A doomsday prepper braces himself
for an impending "Armageddon"
In stubborn his mind; which is irreversibly
made up, the end of the world is drawing near.
He's taking extreme preventive measures
as he prepares for the day of reckoning.
Some folks in the neighbodd think he's out there;
gone crazy like a fox. He couldn't care less.
