Kick Back

How does it feel to
Kick back,
Play with fire as a
Web hack,
From the safety of a
Laptop,
Hoping for another
Shoe drop?

Sowing discord to
Build brand,
Molotovs tossed by
Your hand.
You don’t care about the
Lives lost.
Think you’ll never pay the
True cost.

Hitting singles for the
B team,
Going viral is your
Wet dream.
Celebrity ain’t gonna
Mean jack,
When you’re bitten by the
Kickback.
