I envision a time
When peace will reign supreme,
When dogs will be defanged
And cats will work in teams.
Children will run freely
Through parks that once were streets,
Watched by friendly neighbours
Employed to give out sweets.
School will be a field trip
To what was once our world,
A place of war and rape,
New Babylon unfurled.
The children's tour will end
With group sex and speeches
About the brutes who built
Sidewalks over beaches.
"Observe, the savage hates
The happiness of peers.
He stews in vice and plots
Revenge some distant year."
That's why I plant this gift,
Into the ground I load
A nuclear time capsule;
So they can all explode.
