- Dinosauria, we -
born like this -
into this -
as the chalk faces smile -
as Mrs. Death laughs -
as the elevators break -
as political landscapes dissolve -
as the supermarket bag boy holds a college degree -
as the oily fish spit out their oily prey -
as the sun is masked -we are -
born like this -
into this -
into these carefully mad wars -
into the sight of broken factory windows of emptiness -
into bars where people no longer speak to each other -
into fist fights that end as shootings and knifings -born into this -
into hospitals which are so expensive that it's cheaper to die -
into lawyers who charge so much it's cheaper to plead guilty -
into a country where the jails are full and the madhouses closed -
into a place where the masses elevate fools into rich heroes -born into this -
walking and living through this -
dying because of this -
muted because of this -
castrated -
debauched -
disinherited -
because of this -
fooled by this -
used by this -
pissed on by this -
made crazy and sick by this -
made violent -
made inhuman -
by this -the heart is blackened -
the fingers reach for the throat -
the gun -
the knife -
the bomb -
the fingers reach toward an unresponsive god -the fingers reach for the bottle -
the pill -
the powder -we are born into this sorrowful deadliness -
we are born into a government 60 years in debt -
that soon will be unable to even pay the interest on that debt -
and the banks will burn -
money will be useless -
there will be open and unpunished murder in the streets -
it will be guns and roving mobs -
land will be useless -
food will become a diminishing return -
nuclear power will be taken over by the many -
explosions will continually shake the earth -
radiated robot men will stalk each other -
the rich and the chosen will watch from space platforms -
Dante's Inferno will be made to look like a children's playground -the sun will not be seen and it will always be night -
trees will die -
all vegetation will die -
radiated men will eat the flesh of radiated men -
the sea will be poisoned -
the lakes and rivers will vanish -
rain will be the new gold -the rotting bodies of men and animals will stink in the dark wind -the last few survivors will be overtaken by new and hideous diseases -and the space platforms will be destroyed by attrition -
the petering out of supplies -
the natural effect of general decay -and there will be the most beautiful silence never heard -born out of that -the sun still hidden there -awaiting the next chapter.
