transparency (another puppet in the puppet show)

A Poem by delapruch

see note for reviewers.

"

when mr. hope & change ran for leader of the empire,

he filled those so desperate

with hopes that were ungrounded,

if not completely false---

for if you walk like a politician &

you talk like a politician,

far be it for this writer to doubt that you are anything but a

politician,

one who in this country that is decrepit, desecrated & drowning in debt,

has sold the very inner core of themselves to the

bloodiest & dirtiest hands,

on the way up the ladder,

either forgetting or simply denying that when you get to the

top,

you will have to pay up,

that you will have to remember all those disgusting hands that helped you to your

pinnacle of power,

so as to perpetuate the system of corruption &

keep those that are running things happy---

one more excerpt in mr. hope’s CV came today

when his disciples sent forth the story of iran’s

alleged hiring

of a mexican drug cartel to kill off the

ambassador from saudi arabia---

saying that a military solution is not off the table

but ever so graciously saying that the empire will deal with this with

MORE SANCTIONS,

with mr. carney (mr. change’s prime tool)

speaking at a press conference

hinting to us american people that

“for a long time the iranian economy is not growing”---

hmmm,

if that remark was true, one wonders why that is?

could it be that no country in the region is allowed to think their own

thoughts without submitting the whole of their will to the

empire,

and perhaps because the US wants to strangle iran & then suck the oil right out of the land

without paying the people who actually live there a cent?

now mr. change & co. have begun to spread their own poorly woven

LIES

a la mr. bush’s WMD’s,

in order to dominate the region completely,

so that the empire can go on using the world’s natural resources within its own

borders---

remember how mr. change prided himself on his administration’s

transparency?

remember how he assured the peasants in the empire that his

administration would be nothing like the past 8 years when he came to the

pulpit?

how transparent this leader’s transparency is,

no?

 

another puppet in the puppet show.

Author's Note

“Iran is completely surrounded by US military bases and the threat of attack is constant. The phrase that is used is “all options are open,” meaning, we can attack if we like. Well, that’s a serious threat.”

-Noam Chomsky
