People's NewsA Poem by Mr. Deft DictionJust my point of view, ya know?Gather 'round and hear this, 'cause I know how news hounds love gossip. Looks like they got exactly what they wanted with that scheme they plotted. We're beyond split.... the gap so big between ideas has evaporated into full-blown nothingness. While sections of us are still on a peace quest, instigators beat drums and bring problems to where you rest, saying what's on their minds, meanwhile you just chase yours with your own spit, having to inhale it back down into your chest. The truth of you festering in your intestines. Don't let power fool you....
So they put us on a soapbox when we're winning. Ask them to give you what you're worth, and now you're the reason why there's friction. Baby-boomers lived out theirs, and have a problem grasping the concepts of our ambitions. One dropped pass away from induction into the Hall of Fame of Fiction. And our addictions drive us like Maybach chauffuers... we don't want them in our hoods, and they don't want us in their loafers. That glass ceiling keeps raising higher and some minds lose focus. They know we aren't accustomed to being led. Don't let power fool you....
Go ahead, be a fool and believe that they love you. Once they're no longer feeling your rhymes, or reciting your lines.... you're just a gift of gab with nothing to do. Still addicted... still waking up to a leaking pen. Still feeling that constant tug to drop gems again. Then you vent, and realize you're alone. If I never got a single applause, I'd be pleased to do this on my own. Don't let power fool you.
