Deflection

Deflection

Powers of unfit disposition
Cherry-pick texts from religion
Pass laws bringing pain
Self-affluent gain
Eliminate all opposition
And set us against one another
Deflected by fear of the other
Whilst their algorithm
Results in a schism
From which we may never recover
On tablet/phone keyboards we type
Opinions of similar stripe
Or argue the toss
Hot bothered and cross
With platitudes commonly tripe
Each doubling down on opinions
We throwaway billons nay TRILLIONS
Of riches to those
Whose wealth daily grows
Are we then no more than mere minions?
If only we had the ability
To shut up and join in civility
Collectively see
These powers that be
Thrive on the masses' stupidity
