#1213-News Flash

Two-legged steel creatures,

Were recently seen,

In remote parts

Of our civilized world.

Some were captured, and

Immediately bolted to steps,

Leading to nowhere.

No questions were asked.

Medals and praise, were heaped

On a chosen few.

Only later,

Did the truth emerge.

It had all been a hoax.

But by then,

It was too late.

The population

Had come to blindly believe,

Its daily share of

Carefully chosen,

Spoon-fed news.
