Led By Liars

Some thinner branches tremble with desire Reaching out beyond the shrub’s wide shape The sun has drawn them up with its great fire Yet, without learning, there is no Messiah. No support exists, they sulk and drape The thinner branches trembling with desire To greatness and to height they had aspired Now will they turn out sullen as they mope? The sun has drawn them up with its great fire Like the politicians who conspire The European failure stole our hopes Though little Hitlers tremble with desire Unelected Minister, Prime liar. Will he ever cross the final tape? The sun has drawn Men up with its great fire. As the West evolved through crime and rape We were thought Enlightened in our scope We loved the Inquisition, loved the fires The gods have punished us and never tire.
