In the simulacrum (text)
In the simulacrum
The absurd scale of things goes unnoticed
When nothing is real
The biggest things
Are smaller than the smallest things
Life and death, I mean
It’s no fun on Thrill Kill Street
Hardcore gamer holograph apocalypse
Bleeds and glitches into Undead Alley
In the state of Endless War
Superbugs in cruel code, GMO Ebola bombs
Virtuality strewn with body parts
Singularity filled with fresh corpse meat
Hacked in hardware
Islands of love, places of peace
Survive but don’t evolve
Gun-free zones make good targets
The networked mind turned mean
When it happened, it was clear
How else could it be?
Ourselves, uploaded
Our fears and bad ideas
We live there now
Self-programmed
Forever, man.
