'The Love of Money Is...... '

 It is said that..... 

'election campaigns are fought in poetry whereas governance happens as prose.'.

If that is true, for even a few countries
then there is no poetry like the money
that is raised to fight a campaign with.

And if the huge amounts of money
that pay for political advertising
are as poetic as country can get
whilst choosing who should be in office
then it does not matter who is elected
the country is well past being redeemable.

Any government that loves only money
whatever the prose style of it's rule 
is the new root, more entrenched, of all evil.
