This is new for me
Writing while the news is on
Good test to see
Can I think and feel myself
While all the world is running a muck
The media frenzy pursues
Relentless and persistent
The narratives compete
Push and pull
Rip and tear
We are in a war for the mind
But who will take the time
To do the work to understand
What is truth
It is mingled with fiction
All a play for power
Oh the good ole days
So long forgotten
When news traveled on horses
In papers not spoken
On screens to allure
History is being rewritten
What was all the education for
It’s that time
To pay attention
To wake up and see
Things are being spun
So many just repeat
Like parrots on cue
To spread the news
True or false does not matter
I fear we may be asleep
Not realizing how crucial
These times they are
Gonna change the future
One way or another
What shall we do
