Media Bytes
Light a candle
Go on a vigil
Put a handle
On Twitter if you will
Say your piece
Grab sound-bytes
Find release
In media fights
Then off to a cocktail
To talk of your deed
Bemoan of happenings
As you drink up your mead
And when some time passes
Look up a cause
Think of starving masses
As you pour on the sauce
Such and such needs justice
Our liberty’s at stake
Set right what’s amiss
Just give them your take
Light another candle
Bask in its light
For brief is its mantle
As it fades overnight.
Through the times I’ve seen
Days of thunder and noise
Each cause a has-been
Aborted child of media’s choice
