Disinformation by E. Hughes
Disinformation
is information of a most insidious kind.
It disguises itself as truth
to render us blind.
It preys on our fears
plants itself in our minds
rinse and repeat
two thousand and twenty times.
It provokes us to anger,
sowing distrust
spurring us to acts
of wanton bloodlust.
It is not what we seek, but often what we find.
Disinformation
is information of a most insidious kind.
