Statesman

Among the other thugs in his circle he is considered to be a statesman Like them he compromise his values if he has any to get what he wants from whomever, he plays the fence on both sides. As statesman for the government he is never home and always away from his made up family and fake wifey But he needs her to defend the homestead like Penelope in Odyssey and bail him out of trouble because his sensible family members are too exhausted to support him and his dilettante and deals made in Hell. The years go quickly and his government pension exist only in his head because he is a property of the State the bail and bonds men are betting that he will muck it up and can collect due to forfeiture and his negligence to appear in court. As statesman owned by the government he is never home and always away from his family who loves him and his children who do not understand that Daddy is locked up in the state penitentiary again Like the boy who cried wolf his lies about him being innocent has played out. Life is passing him by and he will not receive an accommodation or retirement party for all his years with the government he will be a brief memory in history his prison number will be documented along with his criminal record forever and ever.
