Speaking through nature

Like the bombardier beetle
with an advanced weapons system 
It can expel an intense hot liquid  pulsating jet of words 
it blinds the frog before he can croak 
aiming its turret in any direction with accuracy 
After the ejection of each explosion 
that of the boiling pressurised fluid
we can see the bug in politics talks hot air from the rear
a weapon system that science can't work out 
I can see now why they dig for  
it helps to cover over their trail in leading the blind 
over the cliffs where they fall victim to a deadly cause 
That which shifts the whole nature of things to suit tyrants 
those whom play a hand in killing
