Speak Or Pen, No Evil

We never hear our leaders' actual, personal conversations. 
But we assume a lot from any disreputable so-called news 
organization!

Then we,with pride, shamelessly, blame their ethics?
To our great , joy and unbounded vilification?

I wish we'd just once, take full responsibility.
And expose our own failings, faults and sinery!

Non-leaders are far from perfect or innocent.
Talking about others supposed failings,is about as evil 
as a human can get.

Let's hear about your failings for a change!
Poets are not angels but pen as if they exist, in an angelic
cage!

Heya Pangie, indeed we all have personal failings, I’ve expressed many of mine in my poems, see the problem with leaders failings is this, they portray and advertise all their good points to get the job, otherwise they’d never get into power, so people and the media are going to scrutinize them on their words and actions, I’m afraid it comes with the territory, cheers David

David Leaders don't have to make confessions. Opposition RESEARCH IS paid to do that. Find any sin and blow it out of proportion. In the Torah it forbids speaking evil of anyone. Bur who cares what God says! I still say, we should talk about ours IF we. Thanks David choose. Truth is hiding. And we dunderheads elect leaders. So we get what we voted for, cheating is huge sin. That means to win with no integrity...with no integrity no leader can do a thing. Add in, lying newscasters. Far worse than any leader, There is only one leader, he was nailed to a cross and was no liar. Thanks David...Pangie xx
