This sad truth has always been, it's ever so clear. Sara, no need to 'read between the lines' for all is transparent. I rely on knowing history and read all around, because while worldly kingdom's rule, we obey man's laws and must choose. Choose with care, God is love! (our Christianity tested) Love the title! :D

thanks for visiting, Anaya, and for sharing your thoughts. I agree, while on earth, we obey men's laws and choose. We must choose wisely...well said. Enjoy your evening, Sara

Dear Sara, YES! amidst the cacophony of political rhetoric, where power becomes the devil's currency, your words unveil the hidden truths. I loved how your poem is a clarion call to decipher the labyrinth of deceit and manipulation. Your amazing insight invites us to read beyond the surface, to discern the crimes veiled by eloquent lies. Yes, we are to remain vigilant and perceptive. A very enjoyable read, Sara. - Blessings, Daniel

thanks, Daniel, for your in depth read and insightful comments about my poem. I liked 'devil's currency' and 'clarion call.' Even your comments are poetic in nature, and I'm grateful for them and your words. I agree. We are to remain vigilant and perceptive. Have a blessed day, Sara

Indeed, Dear Sara, the world is filled with such individuals. These individuals are driven by their insatiable desire for power and wealth, showing little concern for the well-being of others. Impressive couplet poem, Sara,

I agree, dear Sotto. For those individuals anyone and anything is collateral damage and matters not to them. Thanks for visiting and for your comments. Grateful for you and your presence here on PS. Have a great day, your poetess friend in Texas, Sara

Babel-ing bullies of crime and greed, they want it all ... care less what others need. Nice couplet poem, Sara, with great message. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill

For sure, most of them are in politics, but there sure are a lot of celebrities in the world of Babel as well.

it has been said that "politicians, like diapers, should be changed frequently...and for the same reason...."

Truer words cannot be spoken, Sara. Gotta read between the lines...or be like me, don't read any of it (lol) Nicely done!

agree 100%. I want to be informed so I read between the lines and work very hard at discerning the truth behind the propagandized lies. Have a great day!
