“Reimagine 2025 by Stewart Stafford
Imagine no Viagra,
Put yourself at ease,
Flags at half-mast, limp,
No one worthy to please.
Imagine no more Temu,
It’s costly if you try,
No tacky deals to tempt us,
Prices rocketing sky-high.
Imagine all the suckers,
Chasing Black Friday deals —
Whoa.
You don’t pay for illegal streaming,
First, it works and then it’s gone,
I hope someday Hollywood joins us,
And binge-watchers will live as one.
Imagine all your neighbours,
Squatters on your Wi-Fi?
Why?
Imagine no porch pirates,
I wonder if Jeff Bezos can?
No toilet paper gold rush,
A calmer state of Man.
You may say we're screen-addicted,
Babies swiping, having "fun",
Messiahs made of viral nonsense,
Pull the plug and we are done!

“Monotonous talk of the end of American hegemony, the universal cliché of the period, is mostly a way of avoiding mounting a serious opposition to it.”
