Casting call for Sci-fi B movie

Scripts and prose, skimmed of ideas,

technology basted, for turkeys and steers,

why so much effort to rip-off

your peers;

it's easy to be invisible, unheard

not present in broadcast or word,

just be.

Don't ask to be noticed, refrain

from popular memes, restrain

any urge to engage

with tidal rage on editorial page

or strain, in social media pain.

Publication gurgles, like drains,

whilst any economical gain

bulges in purses of giants

in the main.

Pirates are not just seafaring folk,

among weary and poor they stalk,

gleaning last breath and rags of life,

scrape through earth, easy with knife

fork and spoon, to devour. Front page,

menu; savour our bones in their stew.,

folk you never knew,

easily invisible, unheard.

not present in broadcast or word.
