Fear & Erasure

Fear & Erasure

roving black hole
devours
a misplaced life
somewhere
in the futile fog
of wandering warfare

it's baked in the cruel cake:
an ultimate deletion
is coming for us all
with groaning glee

we scratch an incendiary itch
under the hood of
a mutilating maelstrom
where cryptic terror gushes from
loose AI cannons

i fear it all
but there's nothing
to fear but
the imperfect
storm
