On the Virtual Ramparts
A verse inspired by Jonathan Greene
in an age of information ostensibly masquerading and parading
the shamelessly craven’s debauched instigations
as substitutions for amplification of true knowledge
and all that it’s precipitated like Icarus in freefall is
endless victimhood revealed as exhibitionist self-flagellation
that defies any sensible explanation
across the nations digitized electrical impulses undulate
unmodulated and under-debated by unsated haters
fated to massacre all adherents
to a form of civilization destined for dissipation
i drip this into your melons for your edification
on the stratifications debasing our innovations
the nascent reimagination of motivations
deceptively and kleptomaniacally for the taking
remains unguarded from thieves in the temple of light
so grab your weapons — i reckon it’s time for a fight.
