Author's Note:
'You believe everything on the internet. Get a hobby. This is bull shit and you all know it.' ~Ronald Williams
'Composed, March 19,2016 - in response to Williams' message to my
Facebook page criticizing my post of Noam Chomsky's interview regarding Ronald Reagan's racism toward Blacks
This work is dedicated to Ronald Williams, my Facebook friend who's above comment, provided the impetus arousing the comprehension within, that poetry has long been my spiritual hobby; and indeed his mere suggestion, inspiration to compose another poem.' ~JBE
ADVISED TO GET A HOBBY - INSPIRED, I COMPOSED A POEM
…'Get a hobby'….was suggested
By one….seemingly at a loss…
…Civil….lack…….of expression
Condescending…words tossed
'You believe anything on the Internet'
……‘Tis….a criticism……..asinine
'This is bullshit…and you know it'
Expressed ignorance….of a kind
Of the intellectually challenged
….Or the bigotedly….inclined
When it comes down to 'your' hobby
…Fox News…..comes….to mind
Now…Chomsky….the messenger
….Exposing facts uncouth
Pitiful…………the mindset….
That simply can't…handle truth
