Socially Mediant

Why did I begin 
When I knew
I couldn't win?

It's all such a laugh 
A ****ing sick gas.

So here it unravels 
A pen with a fragile
Mind, and no editing
For we post in a blank
Cloud of uncertainty 

You can be a superhero
Just write what you see 
It's the word in the middle, 
It's so easy.

Poets?  No nay never.
No nay never no more.
Science develops history
Not a happy go lucky man. 

I defy and refute any
Simpleton who
Defies and refutes 
What I know to be true.

The media social 
Comes into your 
Life by
Pasting false memories 
And stretching your lies
Like I am a god
You just never met me
I am so smart
Just don't ever test me. 

Only a figure of motion 
Are words
The anthem of nonsense
We agree to spit out,
Before we lay down 
And sleep for the day,
A Facebook of falsehoods 
A quick spritz of the ignorant 
To keep us in tune.

What I don't understand is that I feel I understand. That's poetry. xomo
