Humpty Dumpty, Fake News Again

They say Humpty Dumpty sat on said wall
But was it there, ever at all.
Was it just lies dragging us in
Fake news again, nothing but spin.

Maybe a bluff turning our heads
Hiding something far darker instead.
Just a false trail, without a trace
Leaving us standing, with egg on our face.

In subterfuge I may be a novice,
But is there a connection, with the Oval Office!

Faraz Ajmal Date: 7/7/2018 9:08:00 AM There is a connection with oval office, your poem was really nice and sure a joy to read, but if you would have solved a mystery( like other high placers did) you would definitely have been given a higher position, anyway many congratulations on your win in the contest, good luck and have a really nice day Login to Reply Gary Smith Date: 7/7/2018 12:40:00 PM Thank you Faraz :)
