With the advice of appointed sidekicks... <br />One man has singlehandedly insured <br />The word 'integrity' has become a joke, <br />When applied to folks who govern... <br />From such lofty positions! <br /> <br />Credibility? <br />Can you say...'Got none? ' <br />And will never be located! <br />Not at these sub-basement levels. <br /> <br />AND... <br />It is rumored that this costly production <br />Is 'thisclose' from losing all interest, <br />From everyone <br />Because someone had a notion <br />This man has a thought to be shared <br />To determine the direction of 'down and deeper in dung? ' <br />Light has already refused to shine on the minds <br />Where these folks are tripping over their steps. <br /> <br />He has no thought to think! <br />That is why we are now on the brink of no return! <br />But... <br />There is some satisfaction that attracts to this action! <br />He reflects all of those who chose to follow him... <br />Into the caverns of darkness! <br />And they accept this. <br />Since they watch and cover, <br />Each other's backs! <br />Like rats on an expedition!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
