Another Farage barrage
Slewed and screwed by another Farage barrage No longer a skewed malicious mirage Stronger imbued with pernicious camouflage Wronger spewed such vicious sabotage Doom Monger crude officious collage Slewed and screwed by another Farage barrage Rabble rousing by ghoulishly espousing Nige will oblige and foolishly perform Leader and feeder of each reader Preach on every seedier media platform Separate the wheat from the chaff Oi...

The Flower and The Machine
He knew the flower to be fair, but he did not want to wait. So he turned to the promises of the machine. It offered quick solutions -perhaps imperfect- but they were on-demand. Scalable. Inexhaustible. And they cried for nothing. They had no need. Perhaps there were flaws, but they could...

Dystopia
Standing at the brink of our new world I gaze into the majestic landscape. I see a novel synthetic fraternity Shining lights of discovery – Teetering on the edge Of a blazing dystopian inferno....

Premium Member I Hate this World
I hate this world I'm living in I hate it to the core I hate this world I'm living in Can't take it anymore The hate that sparks a genocide Does anybody care? The theft, the lies, the cover up Is there much more to bear? I hate this world I'm living in A place where children die Abused, neglected, underfed The world stands idly by I...

2084
It’s winter in the year twenty-eighty-four Hell has landed on every shore Devilish eyes aglow as they rose to dominate People now captive to a totalitarian state Society is now ruled with an iron fist You’ve seen those movies; you know the gist Elders tell tales of an earth so free Crossing great valleys and sailing the sea I haven’t seen the sun...

The Paw-Trod Path
Along the paw-trod path Narrow and dainty through the gorse Where yellow flowers Lie dim like fallen stars in the mist Comes a silent visitor, hesitant It licks its lips A taste like vinegar Humans of old and long ago Their lonely essence gone The heather-stepper flinches Shy of memorial eyes The castle ruined on the hill The old manse below with broken windows No smoke at the...

My Life Is a Dystopia
I am being forced to live With horrible malformations On my body In my body I am stuck with them for years For who knows how long The people want me dead Simply for existing They claim it is in the name of the children But I am a child Being forced to grow up And I am not the only one There are millions of us...

Lady Macandroid
Half flesh, half steel, sinews and twined wire, Begotten in the heat of half-love, tempered By hatred and the axe, fathered by one Who killed her mother, the male chauvinist boar Whose eye-teeth, razor-sharp, saw through the spine, Joy-sword in sheath. Wrought iron, blood vessels, Bone and cable, one part conceived, the other forged On the hard anvil where gusts of...

Earth Odyssey
Dreams of blue skies and immaculate waters Fields lush and green for miles to be seen A world befitting our sons and daughters Yet careless pollution has brought a tearful scene Blessed with the intellect and ingenuity to thrive So why the never-ending uphill struggle? Life is for living; instead, we fight to survive Seems there's always another bill to juggle Humanity yearns...

Premium Member Dystopia Dysphoria
Made In America Is a fable By foreign companies For Gullible patrons Who love To call themselves Patriots Today a key To unlock the apartment Tomorrow It will be Your debit card And A credit score Will float over your head Kids go to school Not in the latest fashion Nor Do they wear uniforms No School kids Today they wear Bullet-proof vests No healthcare for all But war! War for all ages! Step up! One and all! Except for the rich! Only the...

Dystopia
We hear a shrill cry, Above a bird swiftly flies, They suddenly appear, Creatures of the night, Cloaked in silhouette forms, We look in dismay, End of an era we envisage, A prophecy foretold, Harbinger to a new dispensation. June 9, 2022....

Premium Member Dystopia the Beautiful
Oh, beautiful for racist lies, And Amber Heard on trial, For TikTok fueled insanity While twerking Gangnam style. Ambivalent dichotomies Now shred my faith in thee. And guns are good, Not brotherhood. It’s plain for all to see. We are free to achieve Our American dream In the land of the craven, The home of the AR-15....
