our Age
is packed
with ads
for puffy chairs
and headphones
screens
pink i-devices
mattresses
vacation dreams
the soft life
in a time of crisis
hard news
screams
from cyber pages
wars to end all
wars to end all
wars to end all
madmen rages
fits of pique
facism
in democratic clothing
fear and loathing
on the streets
machetes glisten
from dull hoodie sleeves
masked faces
trainers
worth at least
a tradie’s take home weekly wages
Adolph’s back
in all his dead-eyed glory
and a fright wig
and a long red tie
old sad story
not to worry
here’s a puffy chair
with hydro lift
and home delivered
über über alles
burgers pizza
not a care.
