self quarantined misanthrope...
pitched into purgatory wham!

 

Ably cane resign eternal damnation (mine)

courtesy devil specially engraved telegram
prestidigitation found me vanishing shazam,

without a trace I
disappeared in thin air voila

Earthly travails
atop horns of dilemma ram

into me buttucks
pitching yours truly ma'am
 

hoisted courtesy

my own petard sheepishly wool

ewe (red dully)
bull heave human bug eyed

recalcitrant specimen
(me) nonetheless lamb

basted skewered (think
shish kabob) log jam

succinctly described
helplessness to preserve

ultimately repurposed
into green eggs and ham

harmless recluse
no more valuable than flotsam.

 

Grant simple wish
to withdraw into hermitage

coronavirus (COVID-19)
just desserts we wage

us Homo sapiens on trial
across web world stage

severely misappropriating
Earthly resources rage

understandable Gaia
she pointedly reminds adage

inescapable comeuppance
whereby our civilization

 

written off as atrocious,
hellacious, malicious, page

poisonous primates essentially,
dismally, yes clearly

bollixed, failed, leveraged,
and tortured planet I gauge

hell in a handbasket ironic
tragicomic fate wise sage

of yesteryear did prognosticate
now we scurry hither

and yon, to and fro
Smashing Pumpkins immortalize
 

metaphor likened each one of us
analogous to rat locked in cage

bajillion eons ago
once upon a time our noble savage

ancestors levels playing field
now new bacteriophage

relentlessly pits twenty
first century civilization doles

microscopic organism
(battling unseen enemy) voyage

around sun fraught tooth
and nail powder milk biscuits

 

a Prairie Home Companion
ruse buzzfeeding courage

for shy people (yours truly)
communicating message,

albeit urgent to revamp paradigm
to live social - nsync

with eco friendly coda
allowing, enabling, & providing

liberty and justice for all living
(colorful) things hostage

at mercy of self proclaimed
superior beasts above average

with intelligence, yet rendering
oblate spheroid garbage.


No major inconvenience
incapacitates rather humdrum

bard (rarely bored),
I wanna pitch headlong into scrum

no need to scream and shout,
cuz I speak softly to mum

(Mother Earth) reassuring,
she inevitably bests hoodlum

standing arrogant, boastful,
deceitful comfortably numb

oblivious when day of reckoning
delivers offal maelstrom.

Wow! Thus was the way it was and now is the way it is. Illusions remain as they are and so does the reality of where we are now, choice "offal" within this heinous state of the nation that was and remains now. Another deep one. Thanks for the share. ONE. Peace and Love.
