There’s a tang of impropriety
played out in our society
as politicians nonchalantly tramp
Dipping fingers without conscience
strutting appetites and penchants
paying duty to a hazy foreign camp
Apathetically so many folk
who mope elections are a joke
as integrity becomes a flight of
fancy
When our leaders swagger blissful
at their congress waxing wistful
plainly no idea what’s really
going on
Yeah well, it really annoys me. So here's one for the impotent omnipotent
