Media madness

They read it in the paper,
Watched it on the news.
Swallowed every story, 
And joined hate's trending crew. 


Do they think it gives them kudos?
Or just the fog that's thick?
It doesn't make them attractive,
More like useless Pr*cks.

I apologise for swearing,
I'm just angry at this fad.
And it's not that I'm doolally,
Instead, I'm incredibly mad.

What happened to the people?
Where did they lose their hearts?
Maybe it's pollution in the water,
Creating these ugly farts.
