There
is a cancer
in our country and our culture
it grows and expands
like a menacing pathogen
the ever-present Social media
is as lethal as cancer
there is nothing Social about it
what once was a good country
is now debased and ugly
sickened by hatred
infected with revenge
the question is
can we cure the cancer
or will it metastasize
and leave
us too sick to recover
we once were
a strong and vibrant country
now we are sickened and weak
this malignancy has spread
to our minds
and to our hearts
this Social Cancer is much worse
than a virus
there is no vaccine
no test
everyone is vulnerable
all we can do is
stay strong for our children
teach them right from wrong
set the example
culture cancer is bad
but there is a cure
Love is
the prescription
use daily for best results.
