I don't know how long it has been,
but it seems long enough
for it to have been a while.
You should see them outside
as if they all came
from the same septic *****
The females become pregnant
before they cease being girls
and litter this town
with more philistines for me to breathe in.
Meanwhile, the men are sordid
excuses for fathers
who glare, hoping
that they can pull
the alpha male trick
once again.
And they will,
because the scare tactics
are deployed
and we are afraid of everything
whilst nothing much
ever really happens
except our passive demise.
The beer tastes the same,
the jukebox continues singing
the same idiot's song.
Everything is the same
putrid plod along disaster,
but there is much more of it.
Those who NEED to change remain
the most stubborn of all
as they push us further
in to this age of idiocy.
