I try to expand
explode my mind
to canvass all that I can.
I try to explore
seeking deep and new truths
and bring them back
for all of you,
but ignorance is a balloon
crowding me out
of my own room
infringing upon
the brilliance I spawned.
Till, breaths become yawns,
and then I am gone.
The earth becomes flat.
Evolution ends now.
Truths become lies
and lies become alternative facts.
Till I take my last gasp
and my chest collapses
with the agony
of being me,
alone.
The balloon does not burst,
but hurts worse
as it spreads like a plague,
plans to invade,
conquers the day,
making love and peace
flee before thee,
and celebrating the bombing
of too many cities.
Death tolls do not close
like bad polls
they grow
till no one knows
what truth even sounds like
and I become
the last man alive
in a zombie flick.
