The news is in, from coast to coast

no trouble spared

no vision to promote

It's every pronoun

for themself.

 

A gathering in the corner of the lifeboat

drills holes to let in Jesus water

opinions float

the facts sink

 

and i who behold a pale rider

opening a can of sparkling chems

and pissing in the font

breathing vapour like a dragon

inhaling it to my doom.

 

The mechanical stench removed

replaced with the toxic corrosion of

greed and ignorance

the lament of good intent

and self

 

The earth spares none

that do not spare themselves

who look for a villain

external

 

Uncooperative in the preservation of themselves

annointed by no one

informed by none

of nothing
