when someone
lacks real ability
in this modern
age of idiocy
they can simply
create false drama
to muddy the waters
inciting the mob
mentality of those
desperate to find
their place among
other scared sheep

the government
has perfected this
distract with
false outrage
to tamp down
any authentic
reactions to
their fuckery

hack authors
do it as well
using performative
posts to pretend
they are just
whenever they have
another desperate
attemptatrelevance
about to release

chasing whatever
they believe will
fill the emptiness
in their pathetic
faux existences
willing to do
anything to be seen
and incapable of
seeing in the end
no one will ever
remember them as
anything but trash

the talent less
attention seekers
burning bridges
while passing out
the blame as long
as it keeps all
the focus on them
hoping to be seen
no matter the light
exposing exactly
who they always were
