Grains of Venom

 

One can exist quite comfortably
within the cozy confines

of alternate reality
where chewable truth is dispensed
in easily digestible increments

And when bored strays

from the tightly herded flock
do wander off into the ravine
of dangerous self awareness
we rein their free thought asses back in
with hate laced propaganda

which plays to the core frustrations

of this Misfit Generation

We feed them just enough

"Us against Them" prejudice

to keep the minions hungry for more

of the social media hate rations

we utilize for opinion control
