Draw your conclusions,
though sketchy they may be
considering the wealth of lies
in the land where speech is free.
Paid in dirty dollars
or cryptos hidden hand
agendas spent in foul intent,
the truth in sinking sand.
In clouded obfuscation
sits the mirror world of memes
where bots release their drivel to
an endless scrolling screen,
as headlines come in thick and fast
and soundbites detonate
the zone is full of mindless bull
and the acrid tang of hate.
With them and us divided
and us and them at war
confusion at the heart of things
we wait to hear the score.
With fulltime soon approaching
an extra time awaits
beyonding this is penalties
and the certainty of fate
Unless we find an answer to
the questions that we fear
We’ll all just keep on shouting
as the day of doom appears
“I told you so” we’ll tell them,
“ we told you so “ replies
with each of us beseeching
those who never really tried
To listen to each other,
make time for other views
as we swam within the sewage of
another day of news.
