Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Spin-Doctors

Doctors take the Hippocratic Oath
  though many are quite loath
to try to save older folk --
  They view the oath as a joke

Politicians also take an oath
  A 'Hypercritical Hypocritical' Vow
To blast anyone who dares ask why
  He should believe their outright lies

Lindsay Laurie August 7, 2020 at 5:07 PM G'day Gershon ... you do realize the truth is hard to swallow for those who rant daily on untruths. It hurts to be caught out - thanks Gershon - Lindsay

Panagiota Romios August 6, 2020 at 10:45 AM Well written, Gershon. Life on earth will never be perfect....alas! Nor am I)))) Far from it. Pangie zzz Gershon Wolf August 6, 2020 at 12:43 PM Perfection is beyond our grasp, of course... Then again we don't want to be 'perfectly imperfect' either! Cheers, Gershon

Caren Krutsinger August 5, 2020 at 9:29 PM "Hypercritical Hypocritical" vow - this explains a lot! Gershon Wolf August 6, 2020 at 12:42 PM Seeing the 'HH vow' in your comment makes me think that it's a bit 'Hyperbolic!' Oh, well... Thanks for the help with this, Caren! :) gw
