undue love of power


undue "religion of matter"


usury unchecked

murder, subterfuge:


foul powers that be

OCULDESTINATE
The esoteric cabal
A sinister secret
To illuminate or to fall
Effuse the real or the counterfeit
To notice it at all
Illusory uncloaked
UNVEIL
DISSEMBLEVile concealment
Conspirators provoked
Imposters fail to ressemble
False pretense 	fall flagrant
Historical hoax
Macabre Jokes...

Comes the time when freedom expires
The gathering need of a patriotic cabal
One chancing upon such surely inquires
In time meaningful writing on the wall
Utmost secrecy Freedom Pub requires.

A mong the ash, the beech, the birch they fall,
U nder the boles of white, beige and gray,
T hickening piles, a golden cabal; 
U nvarnished leaves all in disarray. 
M audlin, they lack the rouge kissed spark of red
N earby, oaks brown, await the children's tread.

A whisper here, a snicker there
What harm could it do?
It's all good fun, there is no doubt
Except when it's about you

Be it skittering innuendo, 
Practiced subtle disguise
No amount of goodness or truth
Can outrun bald faced lies

To guard one's tongue is quite a feat
If you are often the kind
To join in a cabal of callous deceit
And possess a poisonous mind...

A concubine, harlot, and a mistress
to us all
Enticing us with her beauty
seducing men and women 
to do her biding
leading us astray into the depths
of perversion
with blurred vision we follow her every
command 
Not knowing that her cabal with Greed,
Pride, Hatred, Envy, Sloth, Gluttony, Anger,
and Ignorance
ends with our destruction.

Thomas Watson works to cure
the diversity of man
with computers to assure
no one takes flight from their plan

as the mesh gets cinched tighter
behind lines then walls of stone,
dooming writer and fighter
to brave barricades alone

while the cabal keeps gaining
freedoms we should be saving.
Brotherly trust drifts; waning
flags are waving, still craving

blood for profit and order
with smiles and needles in hand
to dissolve creed and border
in culling their grand demand....
