Good Morning Mr FaceBook

 
 
Dear Mr Face book  
You ask me a question every morning  
“What's on your mind, David?”  
Now it’s not like you care but,  
It’s the death of love, frankly!  
In this ugly, sick world the word  
“Love,” has become tainted and devalued.  
People say I love you, but it’s all pretence  
As they then go on to hate, insult and ignore.  

 
 I am sorry I don’t mean to piss on your corn flakes  
But professing Love whilst behind your back continue  
With these three kinds of activities is not love.  
It's just something to say to make them feel noble.  
However, love really doesn't work like that way,  
Please don't let anyone tell you otherwise.  
Real love is proactive, it forgives, Compromises  
It makes things right,  
It cares actively.  

 
So here's an idea,  
Stop saying I fuckin love you  
When you clearly fucking don't.  
That is the most wicked lie one can tell.  
I hoped some people would have got  
Their head outta their arse, before I went to the grave  
But to be honest that was in the hope that they  
Might feel just a tad ashamed and guilty.  
To be blunt some of the worst offenders  
Won’t be affected one iota. Clearly these people  
Pretend to love only to save face in public  

 
They play the part for the consumption of others  
So they don't look like they’re full of shit  
It is so very sad that you can love and support  
People for decades and they can turn on  
A dime and spit it back in your face.  
It's just a shame that the people that this  
Poem is for, won't get to fuckin read it.  
Nevertheless, really this is not for them  

 
It's for those people, brave people  
Who won’t be sold a fake bill of goods,  
Or hate disguised as love narrative,  
For those who know that discern the truth  
Not for those who deliberately ignore the truth.  
I would consider just giving up altogether  
All it would do is give these people pleasure.  
But they would have won, their dream come true,  
Black suits and crocodile tears.  
I wonder if they will bother when I stop loving them  
When I find a similar  
Rage and hatred.  

 
Maybe I should turn on a dime  
Maybe I start fighting back.  
Maybe I should hurt them  
Exactly how they have hurt me  
On the other hand, maybe not,  
Let’s face it they are worth  
0.00005 % of fuck all  
“Cunts tae a man.”  

 
Ok, rant over, my pedigree chums  
I am going out to get a bacon sandwich  
And a mug of tea, Liz's diner awaits  
As does my grumbling belly  
This is what I now call a good morning.  
 
GOOD MORNING!
