Conspiracy Poems
Manipulation
by Ada Fitch
They tell you what you want to hear
Or what they know will make you fear
Or they show you what is trending
Or dictate it so in the ending
You give your time to what doesn't matter
Your senses they know how to flatter
Drawn to sensation the latest chatter
Presented on a silver platter
Not knowing this is by design
Not only want to steal your time

Rumours
by Nkwachukwu Ogbuagu
Screaming rumours frightened the wings
out of pregnant vultures — and the city hall
shook with their sudden flightlessness.
Who could have done this —?
Projecting such banner of hate!
Rumours are spread with red dancing tongues —
embers where loose talks are brewed, and
with the intention of relegating the village to
the back of the jungle league.
