Tumbleweed in Vegas

The hairy weeds cascaded downtown in unprecedented swarms,
where they were spotted shopping, drinking,
and singing karaoke.

One aristocratic tangle haunts the Honeymoon Hotel.
Another drove a Maserati right into the local supermarket
(to get a carton of dry milk, obviously).

Looking like scarecrows at the beach,
they have taken over the technology and homes of humans.
But relax; the Lucky Dollar has experience with profligacy.

I am bubbling with the zeitgeist! Twin PR companies
have just announced my plan for a cylindrical underground
Gigafactory to build the new Tesla Thermos.

The factory, conceptually executed, will produce
enough hot coffee to last into the 18th century.
A ship of up to 40 feet can be assembled in a bottle,

removed, and at last discovered
in the mysterious ancient shipyard of Arabica.
Construction starts now and will stop in the year 1773.
