A quivering light bulb transmits
A broody message to the audience;
Shocked faces lined up against gleaming screens
In every part of the world.
The feed cuts to barren bones
In a grim, lurid alley.
Bent bones that were dripping in a bright luminescence.
A ghoulish refulgent rogue,
Raises a fiery arm to the sky.
Parallel to a plea,
Barraging into the cosmos.
The extraterrestrials have concluded,
A dystopian era is spilling over.
