A #thoroughfare
That runs under
people on the street
Straight through
rain, hail and sleet
Across the ocean of hate
Over the silver lining
Ending outside the pale where
a crowd of facists are whining

[ spineless ]
The people wished for a beacon
A channel for their righteous anger
A prophet who enlightens
Out of the bog
Away from the fog
Into lands anew
With promise
And futures
But there are no #oaks here
Only spineless weeds
Flowing in the current
Swaying with sentiment

The old gems losing their luster
Descending into a muck
Of mediocrity and revenue chasing
A sad state of affairs or maybe
The luster was just a veil
That faded away
Uncovering what was merely
Humans playing god

A city bathed in twilight yellow
Smog and smoke the cause of its glow
The beauty before day turns to night
A harbinger for our mankind's plight
The fuel we're addicted to
Will make us pay our due
In the form of lives
Who come after us
Smog and smoke the cause of its glow
The beauty before day turns to night
A harbinger for our mankind's plight
The fuel we're addicted to
Will make us pay our due
In the form of lives
Who come after us

He remembers the music the city makes. The cars honk like trumpets. The generators sing in dissonance. The footsteps and street-side conversations like stray notes. Loud, soft, cacophonous. He remembers it like it was yesterday. Before the bombs fell, before it became #idyllic

People thought space nothing but a #monochrome homogeny, but it held a plethora of colour if you knew where to look.
It wasn’t boring. It didn’t fill Dylan with sadness and ennui for his solitary life. It was filled with wonder and beauty and it was all his to explore. All alone.

[ #Monochrome ]
I wanted to return
To beauty in simplicity
The monochrome I yearned
Where we see the world in just
The black and the pale.
A world that was more just?
Just rose tinted shades
That paints the world
In the lie of the black and the pale

Held you up
Put you down
Still you wake
Tears come down
Cries go out
I don't give up
And then your breathing finally slows
Your eyes eventually close
Now you're across the #threshold
And we're able to let go

They wanted to #propagate
under the poplar gate
A popular spot to mate?
It put onlookers in a state
But they couldn't care, or wait
It wasn't proper, and it wasn't great

Went to the doctor today. Told them I felt worn down, tired, and constantly stressed.
Doctor said: "I’ve got an easy fix. Check out this new game called Balatro. It’s a roguelike deckbuilder and the talk of the town. That’ll pick you up."
But doctor…

Reach out.
To the train that doesnt stop.
Grab the railing.
Hang on.
Run! As fast as feet can run!
Jump! Extend those fingers!
Not many manage
And even those who do?
Their grip goes loose
Eventually
Everyone tries to hang on
To the train that doesnt stop
