PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

weakness is essential in the pores of a belabored

society

man operates through means of close personal gain

why, even our president himself knows crisis by

its first name

white water must make him cringe in a sick boiling

revulsion

the segway to the out come is yet to be discovered

what will happen to the future pages of the history

books when all facts to the big lie get

uncovered

will the name Clinton come to stand juxtaposed

to Nixon in society's eyes

or will the 'Camouflaged Harmony' rise to the utter

and apparent surprise

just how many dastardly secrets has man taken to

his impending grave

will there never come  a time when circumstance

outsmarts the deceiving of the knave

perhaps not

but often grudgingly we each go on

unaffected even while affected

we march forward until all memory of recently

past events is miraculously stored away safely

in our minds until it too is almost completely

gone

yet often, never quite...............
