if you can stay awake

i do not know the time or date
the year i believe to be twenty twenty six
the penultimate year of america
outside the rioters are fighting the volunteer firemen
owned media has purchased earned media
even colbert and stewart appear concerned for their own safety
“oh no, don’t let the void get you
my son
said the jabber-woke”
it is too late for us
this one is over folks
sorry
please find your way to the lighted exits
floatation devices will deploy upon impact
the captain has turned off the no smoking sign
do whatever you want
oh no
don’t let the void get you
*i’m still upset by using a comma earlier*
forget that
here is another idea
count backwards from 1000000 to 1
million
whisper you’re first billionaire
and in that instant
no human on earth was allowed to hold over 999999999 dollars
roll it over
no trophy
just healthcare and food for everyone on Earth
here
this is going to sting just a little
exhale one long breath
and here comes the tiny prick
