We the people of the Murdoch FOX nation
will soon be exceedingly dead.
That could explain, however
appalling,
our lack of concern for what lies ahead
for “the children” (now mid- to late-middle
age)
and grandkids (who never call,
except to remind us when they have a birthday).
To them we say, “The hell with you all!”
They can simmer in their own juices
as oceans rise and the world bakes.
We will never apologize or offer excuses,
we know we never made any mistakes!
WE WERE THE BABY BOOM GENERATION!
We know we were the crown of creation.
At this late date it would be superfluous,
to think about anything other than us.
As the planet swirls swift down the drain,
we just take our meds, watch FOX and complain.
