humanity ticking forward to 00
more ominous than Revelation
shit’s about to hit the fan
but blades won’t be turning
come the new millennium
end of the world!
warn the tech-heads
a race towards secular doomsday
religious fanatics strangely quiet
in their front row seats
eagerly awaiting the God
honed in our own image
turn microchips against us
taking cold comfort
that it won’t be Armageddon
or asteroid does us in
but much preventable computer bug
while in our panic
too easily forgotten
the Herculean challenge
of landing man on the moon
rescuing Apollo 13 from catastrophe
