The Pulse

byMagnetron©

Nothing short of fatal
Error in corporate scheming
Marketing ploy bent on manipulating
Masses with subliminal advertising
Buried within a seemingly harmless signal
Radiating from cell towers
Beaming to middle and upper classes
Transmitted through fiber optic pathways
The technological plague passes

And in a singular vibrational screaming
With all the harmony of a fax machine
Mankind isn't just infected

It is made clean

Perfected

A new superior race of homo sapiens

Rejected
Their old defective logics erected
Over tens of thousands of years
Erased
Grey matter overwritten with new directive
Personalities defaced within seconds
In the time taken to ask,
Hello?

Consciousness is reborn anew

Humanity is torn in two

Soon to be one
Without distinction as the unaffected flee
Persecution
Extermination

Extinction




inspired by CELL by Stephen King
