“Expert” may be parsed
into meaningful meme components:
“ex” signifying former
and “spurt,” a drip under pressure
a Fox News expert
on single mothers
and the black family, says
derelict parents
nothing to do with slavery
the struggles of Black America
have nothing to do with slavery
in talking points commentary
not a sociologist
but more a bigot, all sharp elbows
with a facile voice louder than its weight
in content should allow
then rails against the entertainment industry
peddling garbage
when his platform or bully pulpit
dishes out a new opiate for the masses
glued to their televisions
daily, ever more unskeptical
with no need for analysis and
no dissent allowed they're
content with poisoned pablum
as long as it's lite and fact-free
so the vessels of their shriveled hearts
are kept clear of truthful clogging
