Worse Than Porn

gambling on war

oh the beautiful music

it arouses me

calmly, you would agree with me

(unfortunately) 

in just the sound

even all    alone 

it is lovely

it keeps us around

together

cogent and capable

awake and alive

united and stately

willing to gamble

ready and able

  to indulge sans consequence

as the stakes are just pixels?

now bring on the violence

none of this matters?

calmly, fetishize 

let us watch the world

randomly dissolve

together

 under beautiful music

calmly

under violence,

manicured

under...

   beautiful music

I will gamble

Did you vote?

We shall see
