Remember the day
the sea swallowed the world?
Hard to cover that up
but the politbots did their best
to whitewash the facts
into palatable slices,
clucking, like chickens once did.
It’s not all bad.
Got me this gig on
the Hiraeth Inter-Oceanic Platform,
mostly it’s plain sailing –
no sea-monsters
thriving in these toxic tides.
A new age sea shanty in 55 words for The Tuesday Platform, in continuation of my dystopian series of monologues.
For those who are interested, I am participating in Inktober on Instagram, where I am handwriting and illustrating this series in the first week:
