Don't Believe The Hype And The Ads Poem by Hebert Logerie

Don't believe everything you hear
Don't believe everything you see
Don't believe everything you smell
Don't believe everything you touch.

Don't behave like a dead walking zombie
Think before you jump, you're not a deer
Think before you vote, you're not a dumbbell
Be informative, forthright and not being out of touch.

Don't believe in unfairness and nonsense
Give others a chance, give yourself a chance
Life is short. Life is never easy and normal
Believe in good deeds and in what's essential.

Words matter. Words precede deeds. Listen
Listen carefully. When you and I are united, we win
We all win. Division causes disruption and we all lose
Be alert and reasonable. And think before you choose.
