Art of Wrinkles

The finess of palm Is marred by wrinkles Through gold finger; They sink into designer suit, Emerge from the collar, They intertwine into a dense web Of confusion, lies,deceit, hate; The eyes are like marbles, Age stinks like death Worse still without reason, Yet he still finds season To preside over an oppressed And dispossessed people.
