The truth of the matter is...
No one is going to tell it!
A society that has been fantasized,
Has flourished on deceit and lies.
Dishonesty and pretension thrives.
It doesn't matter how truth
Is removed from a disguise.
It will not be recognized anyway.
And that is why the pain of it...
Has many upset.
And those brave enough to tell it,
Are demoralized and criticized!
A society once respected for its trust...
Has been thrusted into a nose dive!
And those responsible for its demise,
Do the best they can,
To hide this from eyes!
And those failed actions are remarkable!
As they rob Peter to pay Paul who owes Harry...
That loaned Mary who stoled from Agnes and Jennifer,
That promised Peter she would deliver her payment...
With interest!
And he has been ignored!
