'Call Waiting'

By soosoncrack

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Hypocrisy is as hypocrisy does How it is now and how it was Leaders from the start during their time on earth Hold delusions of grandeur about their total worth It's as if they can't add even though they have tried Subtracting human rights as their riches multiplied A failure to realize they're not "untouchable" after all Will result in a surprise when others answer the call Not as nuch a call to arms as a call to do what's needed An end to their reign so the idiocy is impeded If I hear that call and I'm listening pretty good The ending will be happy just too bloody for Hollywood Written January 10th, 2002 © on Jan 09 2002 03:26 PM PST   0 • 9
