Monstrously Machievellian
Demonic pedagogic
Ominously Orwellian
Demagogic logic
Fools’ Musk-ovite mules
Zuckerberg zeitgeist heist
Dickensian dystopia rules
Google last post bugle
Fossil fuels myopia drools
Bellicose Bezos blows
Bro-ligarchy mates’ malarkey
Unions demonstrate
Amazon defenestrate
Hades Gates hierarchy
In the dock
Murdoch foxy skulduggery
Poxy TikTok runs amok
Crass puns..shock thuggery
This lot don't give a jot

Bitter sh**ter Twitter
Greedier needier seedier
The death of mass media
X marks the spot!
And were brutally murdered,
Why would my name be in no newspaper?
No picture of me, on TV, no none at all.
Unless, I were a horrid criminal, only then
Would it be …for sure, wall to wall.
Over six hundred of us in Chicago this year,
Met the Grim Reaper.
From infants, to grandparents, why are we
all invisible to your peepers?
Nobody from DC ever comes flying for photo-ops,
We just keep voting them in office, for hundreds
of years?
But let a human die, not of my color?
Pictures all over the media and newspaper
covers!
Our skin may be dark, but we eat, talk
walk and have families, too.
We are Americans just like you.
Our hearts beat the same as yours, my sister and brother.
We are God’s children too, and are the same color inside
As yours, not any other!
I thought we we were an equal part of humanity.
To dismiss us, is sheer depravity!
The great liberal media is outspoken for us.
Except~when we are killed, we are ignored…
Like a piece of meaningless dust!

The end of the world news depresses me
the end of the world new
depresses me
makes me want to shout and scream
STFU leave me alone
to deal with my grief
amid the death and destruction
watching CNNMSNBCFOXBBC media nonstop
filled with essential dread
the end of the world is upon us
from the screaming news media
spreading forth across the land
fake news screams the president
all is alright he proclaims
no one believes his 16,000 lies
and so it goes
we are drowning with information
coming at us so fast
and furious
When will it end my friend
is anyone’s guess
in the long run we are dead
National poetry Month Day Seven poem inspired by the news
Breaking news are keeping us apart
breaking
I’ve become so numb
Due to the mass media
The images that we see today are from our own viewing
Not knowing the effects that we show
Come old or young we are all based on the wealthy
Views the show TV … beam me up Scotty take me away
Take me to a place were TV shows us what we wanna her
But we should not endear
This is their world not our day to day
Read beatify magazines they will only make you feel ugly
Skinny the thing to be, hay American high school that’s the place to be
Give me space while I lick my face
This is ace as this has no trace
Gang hoods
They must be thieves, this is what we no
As tv showed me, just like cloth around the face told me
Run like
Cee U Next Tuesday………………….
In a bit, smoke some weed
Hay that dude must be black like 2PAC
Rap and grime their all commuting crime
It’s not true there just writing lines with rhymes
Just like me and you
