Raised on the cult of personality
ask yourself why we believe in people
in very specific people to lead
servants of the god of vested interest
each day, avuncular nepotism
drives the economics of capital
obsessed with ego and with persona
no one goes unscathed by such politics
trust not in masks publicly worn to hide
how disingenuous and false their stride
engaged to deceive the people with words
critique reflects language in a mirror
until the gods of power and deceit
level the playing field with equity
trust resides in hope as false promises
obtain a disclaimer or a waiver
for travel abroad, a visa to work
professionally elsewhere, but not here
everywhere else the world awaits details
repercussions for politics, for choice
sugar is a poison for some, not all
obviously suffer, some even thrive
noticeably affected by the cause
arguments arise regarding fair play
law and order reconceived, dismantled
industry pertains to the war complex
transformed to invade and to overwhelm
yellow, we survive, yolk on our faces
