Penultimate Poem

A Poem by Brave New World
"

Rather polemic yet again

"

Did you hear the news the other day?

There’s another nation with a nuke aimed our way!

For our sins and for our lies

Lunatics now hold the die


No matter what you do or what you say

There’s a goddamn bomb going your way!


Every dream you ever had

Was killed by a secular jihad 


You and your lover lie in slumber

Blown away by a parade of unabombers!


Watch your T.V and cry in dismay

Send all your prayers to the T.S.A!


Old white dreary eyed news broadcaster

Age old rocker on his fendercaster


Sell us the same old bull

Wearing your corporate shul


Tell me I’m safe when you know I’m not

Tell me I’m free when you know I’m not

W****s on parade

Dancing in a selfish charade


With their hearts beating like a drum

Boiling itself down to an atomic hum


In the penultimate minute

They’re still trying to win it


With bombs going off outside of their homes

But they don’t care, they live in domes!


Domes of money, domes of lies

Domes where they give their endless good-byes


Hide us, hide us, in the sun

Don’t throw us out in front of your blaring gun


Did you read the news today?

Our future is only a bomb away!

Dude, This is goood xD Like, it's amusing, because you're basically making fun of so many things that are usually too serious to joke about. Favorite line?
"Every dream you ever had
Was killed by a secular jihad."
