Smoke Hinders the Future

stagnant and muffled voices are stirring like a music box wound up not stop refuge sought from a whirling daunted world from which smoke of disgrace hovers over tongues lashing out at one another like school children do in the playground however these are our leaders at work pointing fingers and name calling. we learn young to be honest and loyal then learn where it ends with that big white house in which trust is swept under the carpet and the welcoming mat of dishonesty one can see puppets in this contagious mockery like the theater of Punch and Judy domestic quarrels those who step in too close will be tossed out and those that are left leave their velvet seats watch a sitcom instead of the news entirely the same stage as CNN our suspenders are stretch to the max our gut is full, living in an unorthodox playground look upon the statues of past leaders of fame who’s to say there was not flame throwing then today we hear partiality that ignites a fierce blaze we the firefighters get scorched while fighting the smoke thickens engulfing the patriots who strive to keep out country stable makes us cough on this turf of bungling rhetoric wondering and questioning the future of prosperity
