No Mental Effort

So we're still in our teething stages

As far as politics are concerned

That's fine coming from someone

To whom sensationalism be there only wisdom in words.

A self-proclaimed spokesman

On something to which prior knowledge excedes,

Championing no more censorship,

Then ridiculing our beliefs.

To appeal to your better nature,

Are we to keep our mouths shut?

Easy to discard

Constructive power

At your disposal

When ego's and sales

Outbalance opinions

On the scales.

Using bands

As pawns in your hands

Building up,

Knocking down,

Sensationalize

To suit cheap public demand.

Merging with the gutter press,

You claim to detest.

It's opened it's lid,

For you to crawl in and infest.
