O These Imbeciles... Poem by DM W

O these imbeciles salivate like a Pavlov's dog
When they share sentimental and silly posts on
Social media. But try getting them to read
Anything of merit or worth and you will face
A seemingly, never ending, uphill struggle.
O they seem to have the attention span of gnats!
While there are, indeed, so many great things about
The internet, are we really 'communicating'
Effectively with one another? Does it not
Contribute to a reducing of consciousness?
