PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Lift a laughing hand

Make another order

Saunter to said registry

Be a useless drifter



Admire your surroundings

Indulge in all the plastic

Synthetic is the way

To one united classic



You are light and soundbites

Intrepid in your own right

Fighting for the good fight

To stake your claim on love



Those in their true mind

Will support in your decline

And prove that you are witty

To those who've got some time



Not unlike your shifting self

You shy away from drastic turns

Sitting quiet deep in thought

Contemplating your own worth



So they may judge and while they do

You will find a choice to make

To stop your greening glutton boorish ways

And return yourself to Earth



'Til the days you've binged and fed

A hulk of drifting static cling

Cable loading comprehension

From the specter's peeling brow



Finish talking and lounge in stillness

Hand things off to the glass trays

Spinning tales of useless falsehoods

That appeal our wilting ways



We will fade in shallow triumph

Laughing hoarsely through our heads

And we will die no soon nor later

Just when things start turning red.
