Mum's the Word

There once was a secret society I guess their silence was a piety I can't mention their name or they just might take aim for those clowns call themselves a deity Contest

I really like it, Rick, for its great form, but I have to admit, I am in the dark on it! I bet Deb will pick up on the meaning since she is so "up" on things political! Luv, Andrea

Intrigue as well as humor here, Rick. You leave us wondering who these "deities" are. From the title I'm thinking the UK, but there are some in Washington who think of themselves as gods also. Great entry for Deborah's contest! Love, Carolyn
