It’s tough to find a theme that’s new
As hosts of
subjects are taboo …
At the speed the
Twittersphere reacts
Reputations
soon collapse!
News filters
through at breakneck speed
Should we trust
the tweets we read?
Old-time
research by journalists
Disregarded - in
two clicks!
Long-gone is newsprint
as top dog
As data input our
phones clog!
Breaking news
is the new trend
On BBC and CNN.
Politics and
global warming
Assail our
eyeballs every morning
No wonder many
cannot sleep
With news on
line: Repeat! Repeat!
Becoming
famous, lured by fame
Unknowns soon
rise to household name;
Reality celebs
make hay
Their fragile lives
on world display!
By COVID,
forced from public eye
Yet creative spirits
never die
New
compositions and routines
Now entertain
us – on our screens!
