Online Ignorance Blind To Fear

You and I have two ears and just one mouth
so we all should listen more than we shout
but with our ten fingers and our two eyes
a tendency to just lash out online

Yet we've one hundred billion brain cells
form the opinions we allow set sail
when our sense of confrontation sits blind
we raise all Hell toward people online

so well said Nick and what folk forget if they post something on line they leave a footprint so even if it removed it still remains in the ether... so much damage is caused by on line/social media bullying:-( hugs Jan xx
