Letter to the Editors
Letter to the Editors
-
You are drowning us in a cacophony of words
your verbal vomit spewing with the delicacy of shotgun
pellets striking innocent passersby, racking up collateral
damage by the dozens while you dig deeper down the rabbit
hole of who to blame for the wrongs of the proverbial
victim of the moment
-
The broken news updates and inexpert opinions
water down our once trusted information
with hidden bigotry and unnecessary spice
By the time a story has been boiled down to black or white
any meat has lost all nutritional value
-
And yet
we have lived on this diet for decades
our malnourished generations now "educated" voters
-
I hoped you’ve gotten good at scooping
The shit’s about to hit the fan
Prequels
No prequels yet. Why not write one?
Sequels

Plenty of anger there. Love the parting shot.
