apocalyptic grin [1]
by a. robot

at first it seemed robotic
our world was caving-in
but then (not so psychotic)
apocalyptic grin
________________________

the advantages of living in an apocalypse:

• we aren’t going to be missing-out on anything.
• we don’t have to worry about growing old.
• we don’t have to worry about finances (retirement, health care, etc.).
• we don’t have to worry about a lot of things:
• politicians, lobbyists, etc.
• the future.
• arguments at family reunions.
• broken relationships.
• …and on and on…
• we get to see how we’ll react, in true crisis.
• we get to say “i told you so” and be right.
• dying – will be much preferred (to survival).

…and (drum roll)… we’ll finally have our come-to-jesus meeting. heck, if he’s not going to come back & see us, we might as well go visit him.
