The Other Side of the Lens

so here's another full-bellied f**k
with his fancy camera
and fatuous smile
at having discovered another
photo-op for capturing human existence
in full multi-pixellated hd!
"Oh," he wonders in his new-found
self realization, "How industrious,
how self-striving are these pieces of Humanity.
struggling valiantly against odds
how happy they seem!"

"How Happy", indeed!
yeah, we may toil and haggle
and try to skim off a buck here and there
our lot to hang around -
denizens of this sprawling entrepot
finding much mention
and adoration
in the condescending halls
of the likes of this
posing D**kh**d!
