Headline Deep

Perception is reality…who needs the truth? The court of public opinion won’t ask for proof Peeling the onion is too much to bear Skim the surface and pretend to care Crash landing…nothing stands Quick conclusions in careless hands Reckless abandoning facts dismissed Split and stitched to fit the twist Clear the cobwebs no time to stall Scroll, react and read nothing at all Rewriting history bit by bit A headline is enough. Who needs grit? Looks aren’t everything yet they decide Sapping joy while fueling pride One-click affection with baseless praise Fifteen minutes…gone in a daze Real content buried lost in the stream A love affair with the algorithm’s scheme Divorce the cycle if you dare The unholy union keeps you there
