Collapse Of A Kingdom

This world is now a realm of deception;
truth being sacrificed on its altar;
the most evil of all, gained total protection;
the honorable; most likely to falter.

News organizations; a propaganda machine;
evil hidden behind every doorway;
rather than uplift; most attempt to demean;
bastions of power; ripened with decay.

Labor unions now have a new purpose;
opportunity is no longer their goal;
funneling money under the surface;
weilding sheer power, their ultimate role.

An educational system; systemically corrupted;
become a form of political instruction;
abilities to critically think, were interrupted;
destroying youth’s powers of deduction.

The system of justice has been redefined;
truth, no longer important to consider;
constant manipulations, are now designed;
now on sale, to the highest bidder;

The wealthy and powerful now buy elections;
it has always been a rich man’s game
manipulating how voters make their selections;
and carreer politicians grow rich from fame.

Unelected bureaucrats subtly take all control;
growing like weeds in the garden of power;
people who have far more money, than soul;
allow waste and corruptions, to flower.

Leadership suffered, through greed and deception;
money paints false narratives of truth with lies;
lifelong politicians gain a hero’s reception;
while a noble republic, withers and dies.
