Meanwhile in the lands of Orwell

Meanwhile in the lands of Orwell

Doublespeak unspoken loud

Ridicule no longer potent

Lies uploaded to the cloud.

Manufactured sense of outrage

Baited clicks with barbs and spikes

Building gangs with garbled message

Pushing hatred, sharing likes.

Escalating heightened tension

Anger breathed with every breath

Voices violate in vengeance

Right is wrong and so is Left.

Elephants no longer noticed

Fear the woke and stoke the fires

Trust eroded, sense imploded

Falsehood found in trusted liars.

In these times of twentymental

Forecasted by Eric Blair

All that is and all that isn’t

Finds itself in lost despair.
