Putin's 2022 War, Day 57
Day 57, fed up
With all my poor excuses.
All that crap.
That crap that
Fills the voids 'tween
All the fake facts
And the fact freeks.
Offer fact and
How they freek ... call it fake.
Just a fact.
God's sake. breathe.
We're at extremes.
You crane your neck
To see while
Whirring past.
Your touch-screen,
Fast.
You crane your neck.
To see.
Then new news appears.
New news.
Special military operations;
Newly, news.
Bombs. Within a war.
We flash past
In masks,
Watching
Special operations
Cast as necessary fact.
What good, sad word is truth, maligned, and how ...
Our way of life,
You say?
