False Influencers

False Influencers

My corrupted culture
takes it's dosage of perspective
not from philosopher poets
or sage writers of prose..Β Β 

We turn for the wisdom we need
from the politician entertainers
of Hollywood DC..

Those who roll on the TV stage..

These slick prophets of the cyber age..

Now comes the real irony
for when it comes to reality
these influencers on whom we rely
know far less about life than we..

Our society elevate their views
cause we are now too damn lazy
to think for ourselves

Hello Steve...

I could ask if you want the Good News or the Bad News?

Thinking for myself, I'm going to just go to the Good News...

The Bad News I'm sure is pretty easy to figure out anyway...

​​​​​​The Good News is not everyone allowed themselves to be sucked in as if it really took a high powered vacuum when obviously a Playschool vacuum would do...

​​​​​It's easy for negative thoughts to come in like what if they never snap out of it and never come back?

I have to kick it to the curb and hope for hope they will...

Where has WISDOM GONE?

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...
