part of the shitegeist

social commentary, unsociable commentary?

part of the shitegeist

icons of virtue

gods of valour

decrepit insignificance

of no import

commercial clowns

on the dollar take

watched and fawned

adored or deplored

worries about AI

when indeterminate intelligence

goes hand in hand

with opulence

pretence of elegance

classless antithesis of substance

happy are the rich and dumb

for they simply party and cum

work is just a game

but not one of survival

one they've won

for nothing done
