Cutting Against Each Other

When people in positions of power cannot be trusted,
It tells the tale of a corporation in trouble,
because thoughts are not consistent,
most have been incongruent,
setting rules and guidelines and then
renegotiating whenever their whimsical
thinking feels it is fine,
Most of the time the trustees of power
are towing the line,
with their diabolical games of cloak and dagger,
"cutting against each other".
