Nobody Escapes

Always a shiny
Stark raving lunatic
And consuming horde
Eager for a mutual devouring
Dripping through claws
Of wind shifting
Solace seekers
To splash the crooked feet
Of leering vultures
Atop self-constructed pillars
Awaiting the inexorable burnout
Suicide or murder

The final tick of
Of second nine hundred

Everyone eager to accept
Everything
Or nothing at all
One note over another
But never the song
In between

While never is questioned
Black and white vision
In the face
Of all this high definition
Digital technicolor
