The Men In Suits

The men in suits Light a fire They pretend to be enemies Though they really are the best of friends Every move, watching the world, Burn to flames Public protests for garbage, whilst Many are killed, destroyed, silenced Criminals live in wonderland Innocents are framed Candles burn but like phoenixes, rebirthing from melted wax, This world is burning, but nothing melts

This is a very powerful poem with impeccable wordplay and reflects so much angst about those criminals living in wonderland and the innocents being sacrificed everytime.. Sigh, quite a thought-provoking one! I love that last line as well..
