NaPoWrimo 9/30 Finding Silver Linings

Virtue Signalling hacks / Asshats who get offended on someone else’s behalf / No core, source chorus tracked / Just forward on the warpath / Cardboard bores claiming authority on all paths / Loki calls that, laughing and spitting / Recreational offense as a new religion / Self appointed gatekeepers / Search for social traits to be clipping / Emoji-vote shit as forbidden / Spoiled fucking American children / Trying not to get belligerent / And adopt an attitude of indigence / Like “Who are you shitting? / Push me and after Social Distancing is through I’ll give you a new sibling, / Tell the court I don’t even need visiting / Let your ass do the babysitting. / A constant reminder of what kind of minds you’re mixing.” / Fixing the elixir / Twisted Sister / Illicit picture / Firespit makes your perspective bigger / But it’s acceptance / That adapts and emerges / Vast apertures / New worlds falling from probability stirred / Social and economic bubbles converge / No trouble to merge / What occurs in the present / Stirs and beckons / Reflections in memes blurred / Streams swirl / Like the delta of the Fertile Crescent / Dreams murdered and schemes purge / New means and pearls / Life curves for the win / Strife whirlwind / A slice of “World says begin again.” / So much rush / We grow from touch / With-hold, divide, distrust / Mingling, mushing, conducting fast / Natural lingering construction of a trap / Something had to snap / Like maybe blowing the Social Contract / Later equals / Greater impact / Mother Nature shut off the tap / Time to get back / Build a new track / Something past virtue signaling hacks / Cutting off laughs / Hushing iconoclasts / Maybe the real battle and righteous path? / Is something past finding the worst to put on blast / Just to move the first to the last
