( a poem written after an encounter with an internet troll)
They simply do not give a damn
especially when on social media
where everything makes them angry
but without the gift of articulation
every time they open their gob
release a torrent of abuse and profanity
do not try not to feed them
or massage their twisted egos
they will just carry on mocking
poking aggressively with idiocy
spreading messages of hate and prejudice
poisonous voices of this new world disorder
who will try to destroy your compassion
your sensitivity and reason
leave them alone they have no allure
let them to continue making fools of themselves
am sure one day soon they'll get their due.

Hi Anonymous think I will not be looking at your blog. What a huge stereotype and over generalisation and strange response to a poem, you could equally apply this .A rather offensive one I must add, you must have had aa rather bitter experience.All women are the same, wherever they hail from, good and bad. I guess ' American women' best avoid you like a plague. From birth many face misogony and from then on the daily humiliation and the indignity of sexism and patriarchy,even today in the 21st century. Please don't reply you've had your say.
