The Sinking Boat of Justice

>>>> Lies, Mercilessly shoved down our throats, Injustice, A word lowered into deep waters, on sinking boats, Fear, The gunpowder of a destructive weapon, Fake smiles, Pretending to reassure, a job for the hosts, The truth, Is only whispered by transparent ghosts, Rogue voices, Continue to shout, while scarred hands continue to bail, Freedom, Was never in speech, but in silent blackmail, Abused power, Is the hole we fail to see, let alone fix. >>>>

Fatima, oh my! I've been on this boat before...:) I've also been the one standing on the outside of the sinking boat. A very destructive world we live in.... xox~ Linda
