Falsified

Falsified                     9/6/2016

 

Fall has come

And with it

Many a familiar dream

But nothing lasts

The way it once seemed.

It’s time to put it down

And it’s time to turn it off

Letting go of the past

And waking up again. 

What was real

Was never real at all

Long ago replaced

And compromised.

Worshiped as heroes

The players of the game 

False winners 

And false losers

Predictable and dumb. 

Nothing but an opiate

To keep us all believing

That good was bad

And bad was good. 

But many a true hero

Has died for a lie

Used up and forgotten

For greed

And blood. 

Sacrificed against another

To keep us all going

Butchered by propaganda

Placeholders for theft

Bled out and dead.

The money is stolen

But war keeps it hidden

Nothing but a gigantic distraction

From corruption and graft.

The truth covered up

By explosions 

And fireballs

While evil hides 

And loots.

Propped up

And protected 

Evil will pay for favors

Stealing from you

And stealing from me. 

Bleeding off the rebels

So they can never rise

Killing each other

For nothing at all.

Safe in their bunkers

They divide and they conquer

Lying to win

And willing to kill.

Sick in the soul

And dead in the head

The rotted evil of arrogance

Shallow, dumb, and dead. 

Laughing at the masses

Who lap up their lies

Nothing but worms

Burned by the sun. 

Hating you

And hating me

Everyone blaming someone

For murder and fun. 

Stacking the odds

And shaking their hands

Selling us out

For a a few dollars more.  

Shutting out 

And shutting down 

Lest the truth get out

Dripping from their tongue.

Let them go on

And drown in their bile

The truth welling up 

Undeniable

Irrefutable 

And indelible.
