Lies2

Lies2

Lies.
What
can be
believed?
Lies.
The world
is full of
lies.
Agenda
driven
lies.
Followers.
Hanging
on every
word,
every
lie.
By nature
followers.
Wearing
the fashion
du jour.
Fashion
they were
told to
wear.
No meat
on Friday.
Stand,
kneel,
pray,
for eternal
salvation.
Politicians,
blind
allegiance.
Followers.
Marching
behind
banners.
Not questioning
why.
Not looking
under the
hood
to see
why?
Simply following.
Following
banners of
lies.
Manipulated.
Easley
manipulated.
Being lead
to the
stockyards,
by those
of lesser
character.
Eyes
wide open
to the
nature
of things!

Hey JP!!....It IS interesting subject matter indeed.......and difficult to write about......I like the track you took with it here......the acceptance of lies at face value....not "Looking under the hood".....but when I really think about it.....we ALL lie......we have to at some point....in order to protect loved ones feelings......to protect your job......white lies?.....maybe,,,,but the nature of humanity is to lie when appropriate.....and who makes those determinations?....We ALL do!!......VERY thought provoking stuff you've brought up here.......and as usual......you sent it into the Strike Zone!!.....ALL STARS!!......well penned dear poet brother!!......LOVE & ROCKETS!!......T xo  : )

You and I

Love pouring out like thick golden sun
The gleam of bronze hair under a blue sky
Laughter...

Serious frown etched in sunscreen
Nails gleaning cherry red
Like a bomb checking it's fuse...
