Digital Cruelty

Digital Cruelty Digital Cruelty is the term we use To describe the vile act of cyberbullying It's a cowardly way to abuse With words they never would say in a sling People hide behind computer screens To cause pain and suffering with their typing Victims are left to deal with the means Of cyberbullies who never show their face Their anonymity is what really deems This behavior as a disgrace For it's easier to hit send than to confront But the damage inflicted should never be erased It's time to take a stand, to be blunt And teach our children how to respect For Digital Cruelty is more than just a stunt It's a serious issue we must correct Before it leads to a tragic effect.
