Rant

This is a poem from "Rant" a book by Cameron Semmens tiph you'll be proud to know that me and sean@ got both books and got them signed so ya can borrow a plenty when you return~~~

a current-er prayer

Our media,
whose art is manipulation
hollow be thy game.
Thy camera's come, it will be done
on Nine as it is on Seven.
Give us this day our daily sensation,
and feed us our fears
as we feed the fears of others.
Lead us on with misinformation
and deliver us from thinking.
For thine is the king-maker
with the power of the story,
forever and ever,
amoral.
