Remembering Not to Lie <br /> <br />~*~ <br />Through a glass darkly is how we see, <br />viewing a foggy image of reality. <br />Time keeps marching as the ebbing tide, <br />our creator watches from the other side. <br /> <br />Vestigial leaders encased in their lies, <br />bending and turning the hands of time; <br />esoterical memories lain deep in minds, <br />can’t tell the truth, not even trying. <br /> <br />Beyond fading rainbows the scaffold rust, <br />the big Greek pillars are layered in dust. <br />Didn’t take long for the sound bites to echo, <br />crowds turning in disgust as they normally do. <br /> <br />Ten generations in hoc with stimulus pork package, <br />my brains swollen, you do the math, old adage. <br />Poor and lazy on welfare, while wealthy are robbed <br />now no middle class they’re completely absolved. <br /> <br />16.1 million line item to a swamp marsh mouse, <br />Nancy Pelosi pet project, queen speaker of the house. <br />Another round of bonuses to big shots at AIG, <br />Impeach the top three, Impeach the top three! ! ! <br />~*~ <br /> <br />© 3/4/09 <br />Amos Beck <br /> <br />Political/Quatrains <br /> <br /> <br />Vestigial ~ having become degenerate or functionless in the course of time; remaining after nearly all the rest has disappeared or dwindled <br /> <br />esoteric ~ secret or highly confidential; difficult to understand; intended for or understood by only an initiated few<br /><br />Amos Beck<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/remembering-not-to-lie/
