So be it
Lets hide bathsalts in roast beef
and hand the hippies handguns.
Lets treat the book of revelation
like the screenplay it is,
and lets raise the fucking curtain.
Let me trade you my soul
for a lid of nitrate fertilizer,
and sacrifice a virgin cell phone
to detonate pennsylvania ave.
Lets gamble our sense of security,
and civility, on sick humor
painting porky pig on the skeleton of our system,
with the cartoon speak cloud saying,
"thats all folks".
Lets circle the wagons around the exorcists,
with butterfly nets to collect the evidence,
go to church dressed as ghostbusters,
and on easter sunday let us dress as zombies,
making a pilgrimmage out of a pubcrawl.
Lets over wash our sidewalks
wasting every last drop of water
and take poster board sized photos
so when we are mad max style marauding
around our barren globe
we can decorate a temple
devoted to ironic contemplation.
Lets erase the word nihilistic
from every dictionary
so when we breathe the fumes of the final burn
we can call it inspiration.
and hand the hippies handguns.
