Centrifuge

It’s all going down the drain…

you can hear it in the music,

the swirling repeating idioms….

elevator music for the apocalypse…

whenever there is a lull 

in the bombing. 

“The faster we go, the rounder we get.”

That was a Grateful Dead trip slogan,

but now it’s even more than true…..

moving so fast the only time we have

is for our devices, which round us off

to the nearest demographic 

or what have you.
