Opportunistic Politicians

Some politicians are so full of crap
and so corrupt that they don’t
give a damn about the people,
those who don’t vote for them
and those who do.

They’re in no way patriotic.
They’re just opportunists
looking for a way to make a buck
at the taxpayers expense.

They try to make patriotic politicians
look like the villains they themselves are,
as if their vilification is a projection
of their own opportunistic devilry.

They lead the media by the nose
with their self serving propaganda
designed to disparage the other party
and make themselves look pristine.

It’s all a political grift to enrich them
and try to keep the people ignorant
of their dark deeds and deceptions.

But finally they are exposed
for what they really are,
for how they don’t care about us.

Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
