Getting out of this mess [1]

['View Profile']

Date: 2026-04-18  

How do we end this cycle? Get out of this Mess?

Sometimes these days, I feel this government is deliberately trying to push us to the brink of extinction, into the abyss of mental anguish and desperation. I feel sanity hanging on by a thread and that thread is frayed.

I’m losing my grip because reality has become an acid trip,

Never done drugs but the imagery fits my imagining of it.

Get a job I’m told, but my skillset against AI is losing the bet

Write a book they say, but who will buy it, we’re all in the same boat

My finances are low and my fridge is turning into art deco or is that nouveau?

My pockets are empty I’m considering renting them out as pest housing

There aren’t enough happy thoughts to fuel the light of the sun

It can be on full bright and you’re still walking in the dark

How do we end this cycle? Get out of this mess?

I don’t know but if I had to take a guess

I’d say remove that unwashed, unwanted guest

We’re at our wits end, watching the world end

Grab him by his stingy hair, drag him through the stinky air

Throw his ass in jail, don’t forget to deny him bail

We need a new beginning, a full wicca incensing

This last decade has been wacked, time to take out the trash
