In The Land Of Lies

The best leader is the biggest liar,
the one who can make what they say
seem the most sincere and credible
compared with lesser liars who compete
and follow the bigger liars footsteps.

That is what we have to the vote for.

The bigger the lie the easier life is today,
for the few and sometimes for the many.

And the more we unknowingly
leave future others to process all the troubles
we neglect for them to collect and to live by.

Disguise Is The Best Policy

The rich are far more opportunist
than the poor could ever be,
but the rich will always see
their opportunism as entitlement.

When People Talk

of being 'self reliant' as if their independence
from others were their truest virtue, I wonder.
Who were their parents? Teachers? Influences?
Friends and lovers? Who were the civil servants
that cleared their tax avoidance? Which causes,
Political Parties, or institutions oppressed them?
Or liberated them into their present unforgiving shape?
Whoever these supportive sources were,
they are now being short changed through
the cheap talk that leaves them uncredited.
