A Poem

I just don't know what you gain
From broadcasting their pain
Then crying those crocodile tears
When the unthinkable becomes real
You dissect them like an autopsy
Then mock them for their therapy
Plaster their pain on paper
Then call out the haters
Whether it's truth or lie
It doesn't cross your mind
You make a show of their woes
Then applaud their vulnerability like you're heroes
I don't understand the industry
Of shining a light on someone else's misery
They just wanted to sing, act, perform
But then you took that away
And made their earth a hellish home.
About the Creator
Sarah O'Grady
I like to play with words to escape reality. Or at least to try and make sense of it.
