Leaving the Great Pronouncements On The Flood

if you're already on the flood, you're safe.
which means, my friend, that they're too late
as if they ever would save you anyway where

words can't hear you, PSA's.
they smile at you and shut the door
behind which villains roar.

but the PSA's are never ending
telling you how they recommend
you spend the last day of the End

they're full of clues
and news and news
but can we make it to the other shore

is the one news piece they all ignore
using up all the air
just to get their market share

just for one more stare at you
through the screen.
or to see and to be seen

while you sort out
what it means
and what remains
