R.I.P


The Sisters sit and knit their victim's fate
 
As six large eyes fixate on one small screen
 
The next victim is subject of debate
 
Should it be Tasteeeeey_Sam or Long_Live_Queen?
 
Each profile is skimmed and scanned then scrolled
 
A digital spiral chock full of lives
 
So many strive to fit a perfect mold
 
And so their social legacy survives.
 
One of these many posters soon will feel
 
As if their life is dangling by a thread
 
But already they've an erroneous deal
 
Active online but IRL they're dead.
 
Then with one simple, practiced scissor snip
 
I_Live4Hadez_!loveme! dies mid quip.
