A socio-political statement of media and the times in which we live.
disengage

news breaking.
in the making.
earthshaking.

story in short is.
no details reported.
facts distorted.

a blurb on your screen.
truth to glean.
unseen.

blissfully uninformed
remains the norm
forewarned…

a new shell game.
one in the same.
shifted blame…

agendas to endorse.
without remorse.
mediawhores…

deeply rooted ties.
more pretty lies.
alibis…

yesterday made unclear.
by a glossy veneer.
multi-tier…

foundations erode.
watch society implode
overload.

john q.’s fascination.
constant dissemination.
misinformation…

masses compliant.
to a Controlling government.
supplicant.

the truth is overrated.
by a media infiltrated.
orchestrated.

a shiny new distraction.
the coming attraction.
no reaction.

new order tyrants.
parasitic sycophants.
entanglements…

powerful and prestigious.
their legions obsequious.
dangerous…

the problem lies within.
covertly hidden.
totalitarian…

contingencies instituted.
reality becomes diluted.
convoluted.

a public gullible and blind.
truths redefined.
clandestine…

turn the page.
ignore another stage.
disengage…
