Believe It Or Not Poem by Donal Mahoney

Believe It Or Not



We see stories on the internet
that are simply fake news,
many of them malicious as well.

It's hard to tell the difference
but a single sentence found
among a nest egg of facts

sounds too true to be false:
The 400 richest Americans
have as much wealth as all

41 million African Americans.
One doesn't have to be black
to understand why this matters.
