Global SuicideA Poem by R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)Humanity is like a virus on mother earth. Moving from one area to the next, stripping it of resources, until we find a new place to infest, Mother Earth struggles with this cancer. We suffer together.Slather my cadaver with a sour flower of a grey matter, so I can travel these gravel trails until I’m frail as the rusty railroads, rest in death’s sailboat, capsized on the sunrise, setting into Armageddon’s forgetfulness, invisible prison of the afterlife, spite devised in the retina Betraying yesterday’s trachea The broken stem of a ballpoint pen’s invasion strikes the Canadian pavement paradise with poetry radiant audacious oasis wordplay spray paint graffiti on the white page of the city, the walking saviours stalk prayer pews like unrooted yew trees, the leaves convoluted dreams bear beauty from fairy-tale like pleas of humanity’s ovaries on the apothecary genes that synthesize on the sky scraped, sun-draped, scab of plastic bags and movie adds, blood raped, the horizon is crimson-grey smog combined with online captains logs for the ships capsized gone under the surface of prosperity and into the dirt Purpose is a misty missing clarity’s charity carrying the scent of smoke from the spokes and cogs in the cognition of the omniscient machine emissions glistening in the airways, a warm sort of cough or cancer, a festering question in the lungs of the old ones, unanswered, the earth wonders why she sits in her own waste One winged angels do not cry fragile lies, concubine bloodlines of our mother remain star stricken with sicknesses fruition, digitize the world around us into submission, blind god’s vision in an online prison and say you’re saving yourself by killing your earth God is a computer program, god is a videogame, god is a graphics chip in a picture frame God doesn’t breathe so he doesn’t drown in the diseased heat of society's heartbeat Acclimatized are the divines, the thermostat rises under the stubborn oven under the slumbering sun, if you like green in your pocket, and grey in your lungs, bread in your wallet, dipped in the grunge, someday it’s going to be toast, the green will roast like tea leaves in the overflow of waters pour at the bottom of the ocean, hope is a profit unlike hot chocolate, afloat in a leaky boat We are so miserably mistaken as the earth’s shaken, leaving every effort to the last second, procrastination on the other end of island nations, stop f*****g up creation Oblivion submission collision with unlivable conditions Canadian credence pieces grievances back together again Walks and stalks saviour prayer uvula fusing the protrusion of the ice caps rapture allusion Wavelength gradient sunbaked stadium Emulates exaggerates consolidates paradise Cadence coagulations dominated regulated stimulation orchestrates stagnant romance inauguration racism castrates prevalence evidence malevolence medicine dimension predestined Premonition existence Menstruated rhetoric confederate flatulent immaculate debacles like a pterodactyl Predicates predators of Republican senators Illuminate ominous nominated concentrating contemplation a nation choked trachea Off the lips of the esophagus apocalypse cavernous cataclysmic Armageddon Full of s**t metamorphosis out the orifice emotionless Emptiness Eclipse synthesis discrimination infancy insignificant insulin prince infinite there are no winners when the world’s cinders Reconciliation rendition edition Relinquish essence resilience Inhibition reminiscent extinguish extinction distinguish distillery reminiscent as the future is neutered, and grimaces © 2019 R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)Author's Note
