social media poems

Popularity Contest | Kara D. Spain

If you’re not willing to gloat,
take a plunge in the sewage moat,
of social media and its sarcastic jabs,
then you’d best believe, you’ll never nab
a top spot among the forum hounds –
you’ll become nothing more, than a background.

I do not want to look
At the screen
And the tragedies
Presented
Posted
On my newsfeed
The ignorance
Of my kind
The rotting of the heart
The dulling of the mind
I do not want to look
But I should
Even though it would likely be the same
I should look
Always look
Strive to make things
Better
I should look
And try
To change
