Self Medicating During the Fall

Tom Moore

While drone cams pan obscene discrete
Panoramic views of razor wielding clown carnage
Safe Family Entertainment made raw meat

And the moral of this tale so awfully told
By some meathead reporter accosted
By the logos, the egos, the questions cold

Is that the medium flows but in one direction
While the money is drained outward
Into the pockets of our misconception

Stitched up in history all riddled with lies
Soaked in poison and honey and gold
Led to believe we control our lives

So in the teeth of a future less hopeful be
Than the ice cliff crashing
Cold into the sea
