Integrity,Where is your sting?

Integrity, Where is your Sting?

 

Philanthropists beware wolves come in sheeps clothing

Poets speak out with your mighty voices against deceit

The Masters of self aggrandisement have arrived

Party and personal fortunes their  ´raison d´etre 

These ferrets curry our favour and give pretence a new meaning

Their placard has two sides, each with a face

For these unscrupulous sods patriotism means nowt

Turn them away from your doors

Throw their manifestoes where your toilet flushes best

Denounce them publicly as liars and cheats

They care not for you or your welfare

Take a look at their salaries and expenses

These charlatans who defend the elderly

They represent none but themsleves

Spoil your ballot paper with a smear of

your own very personal excrement

We deserve better

'love and compassion are the weapons that will relinquish the darkness and when there is no fear evil can't breed'

Us poets can wax lyrical Danny but we won't change the world. My opinion? Things will only be changed by a mass movement of people led by a strong leader to force politicians in doing the will of the people. A la Martin Luther King

The root cause of all this is greed and greed rules the world. We seem to have been born with a greed gene.

Maybe the science techs can now cut this out?

What's that Donald? You gives heap of cash to greed-machine development?

Also to the gun lobby?

Gosh Danny, how silly of me. Seems I should forget this greed-gene-removal idea of mine. Everything might fall apart......

Trumpy tells me greed rules the world. And he should know hey?

?

Keith - there I go again. Off on my hobbyhorse...Sorry...

It's really sad to think there's just scum running this world one day the populous will rise but peace will never be reached with guns and violence, love and compassion are the weapons that will relinquish the darkness and when there is no fear evil can't breed, it's coming really soon nothing will be the same in these coming years. Can't you feel it it's invigorating thank you fam my spirit has lifted each poem that I read
