Xtinct

The Blue Bird is dead
that's how the headline read

Gone are those halcyon days
they vanished like marijuana smoke in a Cheech and Chong movie haze

Dylan sung the times they are a changing
On Twitter Elon like the deck chairs on the Titanic he can't stop rearranging

I was hoping the X was an Homage to the X-Files
the thought left my conspiracy filled mind with smiles

But sadly it is more succinct
bc the X now stand for Xtinct

I don't ''get'' what Twitter is about anyway. Just nonsense blah blah in a sentence or two, then a wrong word and the person is banned. Censorship. He's surely got Desantis and his bunch of white supremacists on board. PS: I read somewhere that Twitter lost 20b $$ since he's acquired. An X might just X out the whole useless thing.

A very eye-opening musing, my King, I had to reread to understand the nature of your theory. This world is progressing into the unknown. and this is the time you must use your third eye of enlightenment, which I could attest, you are prone to do that in your subtextual poetic ponders. You must learn to decipher what is occurring around your intellect.

Have a blessed Saturday, and may you find peace as you rest into your Sunday.
