Poem "An Ode to Net Trolls"
An Ode to Net Trolls
By Richard H. Fay
Lurking in basement lairs,
Sitting before glowing screens,
Hiding from the real world,
Net trolls fling their muck
Muddying electronic discourse.
Pounding plastic keys,
Posting insulting jabs,
Gaslighting the unwary,
Net trolls spew their hate,
Spreading online misery.
Vomiting vile vitriol,
Pushing fallacious arguments,
Reveling in crude toxicity,
Net trolls attack their targets,
Bullying chosen victims.
Oh, pestering net trolls,
What childhood traumas,
Emotional deficiencies,
Or mental dysfunctions,
Turned you into such sad sadists?
In spite of the whys and wherefores,
Regardless of their offensives,
Notwithstanding their provocations,
Let us pity the poor net trolls
For being the pathetic wretches they are.
