Media, once social,
Now is nothing if not tribal
‘Followers’ another word
For a herd of blind disciples
Hanging off the every word
Of the wealthy and entitled
Popularity the faith
Of the braindead and the idle
Hashtags become commandments
By which judgement shall by passed
With scripture shared so thoughtlessly
By zealots unabashed
Worshipping false gods
Of a modern-day religion
That they’ll follow to a point
Of suicidal idolism
