If you remember the seventies you weren’t there
Recall the sixties if you stayed alive
The eighties made money and lost it
The nineties cost more and slammed into a peak
2001 blew it all up
For most but armies the oughts meant nought
Media lost mediums and meaning
The twenty-teens brought net-crazed tweens
Progressing to pandemics of virus and deceit
Millions died
Their memory not for remembrance
Now the angry earth wants to expel us
Parks us on tracks between past and future
What gets hit when those two crash?
AI simulations continue optimistic
The future’s bigger than anything we see
Just like I said
You had to be there
