MY BLOOD IS ANGRY,VIVID RED,
IT BOILS WITHIN MY VEINS,
AND MY STEAM POWERED HEART
POUNDS WITHIN MY CHEST,
IT MAKES ME SEE THROUGH ,
A FOG SHROUDED FLOW OF WORDS,
SPEWING FORTH CLOUDED VIEWS
OF UNTRUTH DRESSED,
IN ALTERNATIVE CLOTHES,
TO CONFUSE CLEAR THINKING,
AND TURN HELD OPINIONS,
INTO INTROSPECTION AND DOUBT.
FALSE VIEWS AND ADDLED BELIEFS,
SURELY, DISBELIEVED BY THEIR OWN ADVOCATES,
ARE MERCENARY TOOLS,
USED TO WRENCH POWER OUT,
THEN GRASP IT , IN ORGASMIC SELF IMPORTANCE,
IN DENIAL OF TRUE FEELINGS,
POWER IS IT'S OWN AMBITION,
ABUSE IT'S USUAL END,
LORD PRESERVE ME FROM SELF SERVING,
POWER HUNGRY MIS-USERS, WHO IGNORE TRUTH,
IN PETULANT SELF IMPORTANCE,
BUT THEN,
I HAVE NO READY ANSWERS,
ON HOW TO CREATE HARMONIC MAN.
SEEKING POWER TO SERVE FLAWED, MISBEGOTTEN IDEALS,
AND THE SLAVISH ADHERENCE,
TO SELFISH POWER WORSHIP,
IS NOT THE WAY TO PEACE,
OR TRUTH,
OR A HARMONY THAT HEALS,
WILL ANY POLITICIAN EVER,
EVER STAND FOR THE TRUTH,
IN A SIMPLE WAY,
THAT ALL CAN UNDERSTAND,
OR MUST THE ARRIVAL OF POWER,
ERODE MORAL BELIEF,
AND TURN YET ANOTHER POLITICIAN,
INTO ANOTHER CORRUPT MAN.
