The Apocalypse Will Be Livestreamed

No need to run
This planet is done
Mother Nature is pitching a fit
And the natives are in a snit

Drinking motor oil, pissing gasoline
Riding high on that bullshit machine
No need to read
It's all right there in your feed

All your heroes
Turned into ones and zeros
Algorithms gone viral
Accelerating the spiral

It ain't the season
For thought or reason
Politics as sport
Leaves no room for that sort

What's the proper attire
When reality is satire?
May all be going to shit
But you can buy PJs for your pet

What can you say
About the data you give away
Smart surveillance
A small price for convenience

Trust nothing
Unless you see it on a screen
Reality has a well known bias
Against those who can't acknowledge a crisis

Don't you fret
Can't miss it
Just like you dreamed
The Apocalypse will be livestreamed


Thanks to @rubido for giving me the idea to take a swing at this.

That’s a great but depressing poem hahah

Lol, thank you! I try to not let my inner cynic out too often but sometimes you just gotta relax and have a little fun.

Nice one, glad to see you didn't waste any time, always best to strike while the iron is hot.

Thanks. If I don't do it immediately I get distracted and it never gets done 😎

great picture, awesome poem...thankfully theres a screen on here almost 24/7 so we shouldn't miss the apocalypse!!

Thank ya! Fingers crossed, think we'll have a ringside seat 😎
