This was inspired from facts I read about government bodies all over the world Justice only serves on one side of society a fact in honest down to earth truth

No one lives in a democracy opening word lie 
Let's be frank for a moment we are all slaves 
unto a taxpaying system none the less true 

Graded by our salary in class distinction fact 
poor lawless order is the ruling bodies ignorance 
that takes under the table deals which turn tricks 

Hidden from view by corruption shady characters 
our role models to carry into the future light 
Power generates a hungry source unyielding 

That lusts with the endless need for more 
constantly envying others happiness 
chaos will follow unmoral government bodies 

They who should be prosecuted where justice dwells 
under high treason against the state and her children 
I believe in truth and honestly not falsehoods

And you live in Ireland! What must you think of us on the other side of the Atlantic? Appreciate your political verse; not too many of us using that option. Gerald Oliver
