Starlink Serfage
We can constellate the founding fathers
much like the Greeks did with their dying gods
and pulverize their Mount Rushmore facades
into some rubble that no more bothers
the vespering spirits of yesteryear...
now replaced by apocalypse horsemen
grinding axes like a million Norsemen
extoling a scornful billionaire's sneer.
Sing no more of those noble intentions
that now are just as Polybius...dead...
and as badly drained as Cicero's head,
or Edison's corpse of new inventions
when monopolies know and see us all
as mere data points...in abject thrall. 🤖
