Selling herself to the highest bidder....

Flags, 
Wealth, 
Banners, 
Limousines. 
There's power for sale—
Auctioned to the highest bidder.

Our democracy,
Bought by the highest bidder,
Is an empty word 
We do not need elected crooks
We need a new Mandela...

Tom’s Thoughts On Earthly Justice

Earthly Justice,
is sometimes money with a mask on.
While Lady Justice may be blind,
She is often a prostitute, 
selling herself to the highest bidder.

Today,
7-5-2016
Lady Justice removed her mask,
And with her finger, the scales were tipped.
She no longer remains apolitical, 
But has become a harlot,
 Willing to pitch herself to the highest bidder;

Feeling the sting of his acidic lips
Judas sold his story to the highest bidder
To save himself
One more time
Crushing the wings of the angel
He professed to love
For one more day in the land of Oz
Eternally searching for his soul...

I want to gamble,
So let the highest bidder take my heart,
I won’t grumble,
As long as you treat me with a heart,
We might as well get ready to rumble,
If you take my recommendations to heart,
I’m sure we won’t tumble,
If that’s not the case we won’t hurt,
I really then want to gamble...

Trying to purchase the trust of a Taoist judge
or the wisdom of a sagacious teacher
is like trying to buy love from a healthy nutritionist,
s/he may be for rent to the highest bidder
at a sliding-fee designed to remain mutually unaffordable,
but most holistically
(and often huffily)
not for sale....

Can’t resist the love I have
That comes from loving you
Promise me that - you’re true
Never to sell 
To the highest bidder

Beautiful
Pointless 
Painful
It’s so nerve racking

Promise me 
Comfort me
Soothe me 

Come and
Rape my 
heart 
Come and
Rape my 
heart again
It’s the only way!!...

searching for scraps of hope with upside down sight
truth pleasures the highest bidder
silent wolf, turn on that red light

they came for them and no one spoke
short lived realities swarming individually 
collapsing into one; the one that broke
what pretty eyes you have, it is too late to go back
they all suffer, they burn
enslaved until silent black...

Lost in the forever of magic 
but
whenever you call them
they will be there.

Oberon sold us on
to the highest bidder
from the lowest realm,
I 
suppose on celluloid
that's allowed
but no deal when
it's real
life.

Like the lamp I've been rubbed
snubbed
bought and abused
used 
discarded
and magically
I'm still here
tarnished
but
still me....

She walks swaying hers hips
Propelled by the heeled shoes
Sound from the walk likened to a cat
Causing a stare, all eyes on her
Sisi Eko!! on the stage

Lipstick sticking like smudge
Eyelashes and makeup, rainbow 
colours running riot.

Seduction art form, appearances 
For the highest bidder.
Sisi Eko on the stage where she
Exhales the most.
Sisi Eko  on the  rampage holding
Sway.

Let’s be self-reliant much
So none can con one such
Let’s keep sharpening saw
Never mind if it’s an extra
Let’s sell brain and brawn bro
Only to the highest bidder lo..!
Dependence makes one low
Much loss never before so
Folks take one for granted
As if one is never wanted
The life becomes aimless
Slavery thus overwhelms 
Harassment and humiliation
Embarrassment, frustration
Before life lacks purpose I say
Be self-reliant come what may..!!...
