Vamparasocial / The Faux Revolution
You scroll enough to find them,
someone new,
enough of a difference from the
others that you
can sink your teeth within them and slowly
assimilate into them alongside the thousands
of your kin. Let your hatred
for their wealth be the spark for your
faux revolution against the
post-bourgeoisie.
Drink. Consume as not to
be enveloped by your hypocrisy,
for it does not matter if you're
a hypocrite. You have no limelight.
Believe yourself a revolutionary,
charge forwards past the screams
under rubble, past the famine
and horsemen,
and stick your daggers into the belly
of the true beast.
And as these and teeth are sheathed,
you hear the cries of damned children,
and believe them to be applause of
your bravery.
