The power of cyberspace,
Honestly, who can doubt it?
What you read now could, in essence, be the exact representation
Of long-lost texts recycled and relayed to your screen
Just for you, to peruse through;
Point is: anyone can be anyone — anything,
That works either in your favour, or against.
With enough tact, I could recreate myself;
Morphing into a hero of sorts, bridging inconsistencies
To validate beliefs, at my behest,
Bringing about yet another “definitive” doctrine
All to feed nothing but my messiah complex,
Telling people lies, giving hope where I absolutely see none;
You and your enlightened mind may see that scam
From a mile away and think of it as elementary, dear Watson.
But that matters little when there are still those
Who cling fervently to hope and are easily exploited for it.

The internet. It’s crazy. A lot of good and bad comes from this place.
Try thinking about someone going on the internet for the first time in their life, how will their experience go with the internet’s current state? Just something I was thinking about earlier today.
