Wellcome to the 5:00 news

MR.apocalypse

wellcome to the news on your local channel 4

We have death and shootings all that and more

And Also there's a store that will open next door

if they say that we lie, that idea you ignore

 


You better keep watching, you better not blink

It's the time of the day you get told what to think

It's okay to drink what is under the sink

Then erase what we say like it's dry erase ink

 


Your local program to program your mind

Don't think for your self, it's okay to be blind 

Each story reels you in, like a fish on a line

And just know when we catch you, your mind will be mine

 


No thought of your own ,the words are like code

How can speech be free, if the speech is then sold

And letters of doom on the bottom in bold

And the weather man says if its hot or it's cold

 

We did not forget bout the blood and the gore

Or to blame all the issues on blacks and the poor

We got shootings and death we got all that and more

All brought to you by your local channel 4

  • Cheeky Missy

    You, you, you, I declare! You made me laugh out loud! This is too rich! La dee! Tripping down the page in dainty fashion with such delicate stanzas yet also such a seductive pull the perverse humor is infectious. I love it! Thank you so very much for sharing.

      The greatest comedy is not trying to be funny it\'s telling the truth in style

      • Cheeky Missy

        Exactly. And you pulled it off.

          So true and so powerful--the controlling power of tech in society is ever so present

          • MR.apocalypse

            Some people would rather have someone else think for them

            • NinjaGirl

              It's less work...but the lazier we become, the more of our power we give to them.

                It's not us being lazy it's us being entertained they used to say this in ancient Rome bread and circus stop people from revolution

                Amen, amen. Watch CNN to learn what to think. It's so sad.

                  Not just them
                  there is no news anymore
                  there is just choosing what you want to hear
                  there is a news channel that pleases the left
                  there is a news channel that pleases the right
                  and there is a news to please the in-between.
                  There is no truth
                  it\'s just want we want you to think
                  and what you want to hear

                  this is a poem that needs to be read out loud. it has good flow and a good message. i actually did read it out loud a couple times lol

                  i can picture it... typical american news anchor accent, slightly creepy but unassuming smile, bright red lipstick, picture of new york in the background. I need to get out my dusty suit and steal someones tie.
