Pop Culture Prophesy ala Paranoia

 i wrote this for my creative writting class as a poem assignment. i tried to cram as many podcast references into it as humanly possible. i even mentioned the Great and Glorious Sigler. see if you can spot all the podcast references.

 

 

 

To begin,

The dark overlord of the future bursts forth into
a sea of black corruption, his chest held high and
his head shining with a bright light

The white soldier is wary, for the Son of the Seventh wheel
shall make his move in two years with the passing of
the keeper of the city

A pirate rouge rides the high seas while
the butterflies in the lands of the East
dance in the City of Metamor

A dimension made from the slivers of Heaven and Hell
parts for a man shrouded in a black shadow
to strike from the crescent moon

A hall of broken mirrors reveals a blind man cast in blood
who waits for the next film that was
once lost in the waves

The fire of a beating pulse flies through a new world order
as a failed utopia vomits forth the
blood of the innocent

The sound of a bell peels in the night as the lonely man who cannot sleep waits forever

And then …

Color me impressed!

No empty platitudes here, that was really well done.  Good job, I look forward to seeing more...

I liked this a lot....It sounds very prophetic spoken out loud..

It was very visual and unusual in the way you fit it all together. the working in of the podcasts and podcast characters and scenes. You did a good job creating stranger than usual, ethereal mind pictures....and then?
