The Devil's Tongue

**Just a piece of "innocuous" satire with underlying political undertones, 
      aimed at our lying and unrepentant politicians and political hacks, with a 
      little bit of humor and a "voodoo spell" placed under their seats. ** 






                                         The Devil's Tongue


                          Stop gaslighting me you cannot succeed

                          Lying through your teeth like toxic weed

                          You will decompose then swiftly deposed

                          Just a matter how you turn into compost



                          Exit debate stand an ugly face ain't glam

                          Arrow coming at you, you filthy old scum

                          Tongue of yours split, spits perverted lies

                          Run for your life before that vile ego fries!

"The Devil's Tongue" has always been lying since the beginning of time. That is his job. (Adam/Eve) Have a blessed day...............

I can only repeat what I wrote to another poet: "I'm not from US so I should not criticize about worthlessness. Victor"

I hear you. Our current political scene here is chaotic and so frustrating. Thanks for dropping by Victor...ab

I think I know where you are coming from, Anselmo, and I wholeheartedly agree with you. Enough of the double-tongued blather from politicians who are lining their pockets at the expense of their constituents.

Milt, these inveterate liars just don't want to quit. Thanks, you're right on point!...ab
