Supervillains In The Time Of Social Media

So no one pressed the button

And no one cut the wire

And the number of both tocks and ticks

Is growing ever higher

And I’ve haggled and I’ve cackled

And liked, shared, and commented

But my existential ticking threat

Has in no psyche cemented.

I’m once again tequesting

That you face a villainous choice:

Press the button or cut the wire.

Go on and raise your voice!

That’s all for now my puny foes

And future grimly-oppressed.

Now I’m off to my one-bedroom lair

To scheme and be despressed
