if you’re already on the flood, you’re safe.
which means, my friend, that they’re too late
as if they ever would save you anyway where
words can’t hear you, PSA’s.
they smile at you and shut the door
behind which villains roar.
but the PSA’s are never ending
telling you how they recommend
you spend the last day of the End
they’re full of clues
and news and news
but can we make it to the other shore
is the one news piece they all ignore
using up all the air
just to get their market share
just for one more stare at you
through the screen.
or to see and to be seen
while you sort out
what it means
and what remains
