dwai Posted September 30, 2020 Anxious furtive glances Try to take in the latest news Meaningless yet wanted Social media listed abuse Who did whom in Who laid whom out Every thing is a sin Every one is a lout This world of vitriol This life of ridiculous strife Only exists online Only we give it life Tireless weariness Exhausted endeavors Manufactured filthiness We inhale like Hors d’ouvres When all things are said and done When everyone is put to rest Will we recognize the harm Will we unburden our chests? Earnest interests in Finding the next villain Will we ever turn inward To find that secret garden? When scandals become the norm When gossip becomes our friend Is when time plays out in an infinite loop Cursed to repeat again and again 4 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
