Anthropocene Extinction: Finality of Primate Dominance on Terra
Prime
Snapshot 37/50
on a private jet designed to pamper 8 passengers
a sole traveler passes the time
unwrapping individually wrapped orange fruit chews
and paging through a bestselling pulpy page-turner
(269 hardcover bound pages of epicurean pageantry and mayhem
woven into a maze of mystery and murder most carnal)
culled from the polymeric pulp of amazonian trees
then printed, marketed, and delivered by Amazon
amazingly
in 2 hours or less.
