He is anyone and everywhere
he is hunched
and tapping
machine-gun conversations
of putrescence
volatile, explosive,
deliberately abusive
his anger grins at the screen
while testosterone flywheels energise
but his cause is not the point,
merely to rile
is to win
this game.

Oh, but are some trolls misattributed or the word itself as abused as “terrorist” and “freedom fighter”. Love the pic and your lines.
Some trolls tantrically offer the insight that nice is not always the most transformative choice.
