Maybe it’s my age
That I just don’t understand
What do those influencers do?
Most of them seem bereft of talent
But they make into life’s who’s who,
Many of them, are wanna be celebs
But many can’t act or sing,
They just do vlogs talking about
So many unimportant things,
You Tube, Tick Tock they’re everywhere
Yet I still don’t get what they do,
Other than trying to sell or promote things
To the likes of me and you,
But all I see is clones trying to look like them
Act and pretend their lives are the same,
Why be influenced by anyone?
Please, live your life your own unique way,
Set your own style and say what you think
Not what others want from you,
Or what is classed as acceptable
Be a shining individual,
That when you were cast, they broke that mould
Don’t be bought and don’t be sold,
Be different and imperial,
Don’t let influencers influence you
You be the one influencing and then be true,
To the real issues, problems and plights
That those who are struggling suffer in life,
Stand up for those with no voice
Promote equality, love and peace as a choice,
Be the light that those in need seek,
In fact don’t become and influencer
Instead of becoming an inspirational dream,
And a muse ready to ascend
To lift people up from their dead ends.
