Apocalyptica : Going viral

 

"Then the trumpets will blare

and that's when

we rip through the sky,

cutting the air.

Not before, not after.

It has to be perfect...

Are you listening to me?

What are you looking at?"

Death scowled as best

a skeleton can

 

"It's the latest dance craze on TikTok,

Everyone is doing it,

you wave your hands around like a clock.

Whilst wiggling your hips.

It's the shit."

War erupted

in an excited barrage of words.

 

"That's it! No phones at meeting time,

you can have it after the lesson"

 

10 MINUTES LATER

 

"So, you jump to the left,

I'll jump to the right,

and I'll spin my scythe,

this will get all the likes"

 

"Ohh and I’ll get some explosions

to go off in sync with the music"

 

"We are gonna go viral" coughed pestilence

 

"Meow" said Daisy,

explaining that if they wanted to break

the Internet

then putting her on screen

would be a lot easier than dancing,

everyone loves a cat meme.
