Poem for Fake News -- Screen by Carlo Soldevilla

Spread the good news all around
Fake news-- I really do not understand…

…why people spread it like busy bees
They are like a person in flat affect, not responding to a kiss.

One may listen to a beautiful melodious sound.
The rock can be played nicely, too and be appreciated by a band…

..but for fake news – It does not tell the truth.
And it can cause pain like extraction of one’s tooth.

For one to see a glass half-full
May still report it right by writing half empty.

Statistics becoming like a bikini
The outside matters, it’s essential,
but what is hidden is vital or necessary.

Fake news, fake news!!
They can be heard or read.

An analytical mind is necessary, one must act as a gatekeeper, to filter or screen the veracity of the information received, before having it shared.
Because one may always choose to listen between the wise and the ‘weird’.
