The basement tour was our only other go to.
Accompanied by the CIA and FBI reps
Using their jargon as if we were supposed to know
I wasn't impressed, the acronyms and abbreviations
Oversweetened and childish
Something moorish for the cornsyrup addicted palate
So into another stupid exclusive elevator we went
Into another level entrance with wirey guards dressed in black
Receptionists whose excess of make up dropped onto the register
Where we signed our names and scribbled dates and hours
All very dark and official, smitten with their own formality
We were escorted down a long steel corridor
Then down under to the basement of the city
Here only the privileged few were allowed
As we arrived the people exiting seemed disappointed
Not a tangible real disappointment
But one that had concocted en route to appear to cool for school
Expressing their displeasure at the tour and all included
How much they were expecting beyond what the experience offered
But it was an amazing whole empty town waiting for survivers
built hundreds of meters below the city for end times
