This isn't a mime...

This isn't a meme
This isn't a mime
So nevermind
This doesn't contain
a picture with a caption
to summarize an entire history
or expanse of developed content
This isn't some diminished being
with a painted facade confining itself
into some invisible box
while insipidly pleading for attention
So nevermind
This doesn't demonize or deify
any group, individual, or ideology
So nevermind
This won't EXPOSE
This won't ANNIHILATE
This won't show someone getting
OWNED!!!
This won't show something being
DESTROYED!!!
So nevermind
This doesn't represent a #hashtag
This isn't a part of some movement
This isn't aligned with any cause
This isn't something outlandish
This isn't something SHOCKING
This isn't something from
HuffingKids Post or InfoWares
This isn't a mockery or a joke
You won't find it on
the UnYoung or a Farce-News Daily Show
This isn't a meme
This isn't an ad
This won't be going VIRAL
So nevermind
If you scroll through your BookOfFaces
it won't jump-out at you
it won't scream at you
It isn't going to make headlines
It isn't going to read across the ticker of any MSM broadcast
So nevermind
This is only a lament
for the days when people
could talk to each other without an agenda
and say more than buy-lines and hot-words
This is only a lament
for conversations
about more than what's trending
This is only a lament for
individual human beings
that were more interested
in making the most of their existence
than existing mostly in the making of...
This isn't a meme
This is a lament
So nevermind
