Thanks for confirming you can’t be taken seriously
with the latest inanity
pseudo-shock and vanity
buttressing what we already knew
when there’s nothing new
dystopia carries the day

Say will some it’s wrought independently
thoughts laid down so artfully
calculated or thrown together
it matters little
an original piece or not
disturbing the peace has a certain cachet

Even if it tumbles out ponderously
leaden by trying furiously
to stir with a blob or gobs of words
pointless as noxious wine snobs
intoxicated
on an elixir of self-importance

Escapes to nowhere irritate incessantly
grating Neal was right you see
at the end of the day
even if well meaning
with a veneer of gladness hiding sadness
every tale by every Del should have a point
