life keeps burning into Earth’s core
gold-plated pen on imported paper . . .
insane politicians, disguised as humans
don their games of ultimate absurdity
against the wildest definition of sanity
each de-constructs, destroys and destructs
until their own brains shrink day by day
alongside ours, which we have obviously sent
onto lost grounds somewhere else to play

hülyaswritings
You are speaking in a language that the literate world is finally starting to comprehend, and your economy of words makes it near impossible to ignore reading.Bravo! … and if I may add, my economical two cents worth in reply;
Politicizing We
– of subservient naiveté –
Among leaders politic
Seek to survive fate,
Wants befog dyslexics
With unqualified state,
Of IQ thin distinction
Will attempt to negate,
In a clutter of unction
Schemes of no define,
And scant proficiency
For dispirited minds,
Who’ll not prod ability
Makes to politicize we
Of subservient naiveté!
