Details, details

Missing image
Bureaucratic inspiration,
vagueness worshipped as a god,
decisions, a life blood of red tape,
serving plasma of confusion
to the veins of every one
with a throb in their heart.

Signs posted of nefarious decree,
mistakes no burdened
when you have some
machine to erase their
mar.

Somewhere in the blunders
one never pauses to reflect.
Hiding files with the statistics,
lives residing in figures,
faces never remembered.

Tomorrow,
men in black janitors
will take out the trash
of mistakes
never confessed.

Buried in the reams of moments
shredder
are the ignored moans of conscience,
"details, details."

    LoL... well I think you made a very interesting write from the picture I liked the ending.... it was so cynical in it's moans of 'details, details'

    I liked... I liked it alot.

    Your tone seemed so angry throughout... or maybe just disgusted with political crap...

    Politely I'd like to point out a teeny tiny booboo in line two, I believe it's "vagueness"

    I thank you for the entry and good luck in the contest.

      Thank you for you wonderful comment and for letting me know about the one spelling error. Gave me a chance to fix it. Yeah, sometimes it does get totally frustration to wade through all the political insanity.
