Society is a greedy monster.
An alien who only wants
more,
more,
more.

Eating everything in it's wake.

Munching and snacking on the the
hopes and dreams of those who are different.

Shoving lost self-esteem and built up insecurities
down

it's


throat


leaving


a


trail


of


grease


down


it's


filthy


chins.

Eventually, this fat man will try to consume space itself.

When it's all gone
and he's floating along
the Milky Way,
a sharp pain
will



make

his




face





contort


in
a


hideous

silhouette.

There will be a cardiac arrest of the nebula.
It will die,
regenerate
and start anew.
