SOMETHING ELSE WE CRAVE

my working forebrain

is chafing against the stupidity


that are the values worshipped by

the most hated generation in history


the smug pretense of superiority

of those who think they know what button to push


what icon to move with their jittery fingers...

and the new ignoramuses repeat a form


they perfected in lifetimes past

(obviously the dolts haven't learned


in a fuckin' thing in all their time

between earthly incarnations)


and shamelessly worship their total self-centeredness

thankyouthefuckverymuch...


ah to be either dead or far into the country

with the tribe who has accepted me


into their post-apocalyptic commune

when the grid of civilization falls at least


and these assholes run wild and murderous

through the streets


not knowing what to do in real time

we keep a low profile among them covered (we hope)


by something else we crave that isn't another shuck...
