It’s at the edge of atmospheric pressure
with a tensile brush stroke of annihilation.
Fingertips are unable to grasp the air’s gentle whisper
but can you not sense it anyway?
…
The trick to remaining inwardly peaceful
even as drooling tyrants torture the concepts
of freedom, liberty, and personal sovereignty on a daily basis
is to understand that every deceitful, cowardly action they take
will wind up working doubly against them in the end.
For it is written that as the clowns stumble
along their path of authoritarian giddiness,
they will eventually lose all balance
and fall face first into their own worldly devastation
and eternal despair.
Therefore, it is wise to laugh at the conduct
of those who have no shame,
for that which serves as gallows humor
to provide a mild sense of merriment during the time of chaos
will return on its investment in manifold proportion
through schadenfreude raised to the nth degree
once the cookie finally crumbles
and all the swinish scoundrels are stuffed fat with their just desserts.
