Monotone Apocalypse

I often fear that someday there will be
No feelings to express, no words to pen,
No new ideas or discovery,
And all thought will repeat themselves again.
All film pilots will be common and clichéd;
Philosophy will blur and intermix;
All books will be exhausted and remade
With change of names and other wretched tricks.
The populace will have one character,
And endless variations on one mind.
Disconsolate will be the traveler
When he has nothing more on earth to find.
Then death will overtake us one and all,
Destroying us, yet freeing us from thrall.
