The greatest illusion

The greatest illusion

A Poem by Soren

Democracy justice's hypocrisy license for the majority to abuse the minority, creates animosity 
Autocracy becomes plutocracy an aristocracy claiming theocracy, a humanistic  atrocity  
Socialism diluted communism, capitalism financial totalitarianism, an unplanned horror
Money and power soon freedom devour where the rich grow richer and the poor poorer
Selling comfort at the expense of health only to enhance the economy's wealth, the greatest illusion 
Car to take us there, watching television in a cushioned chair atrophy in a dreamer's solution
People the cause, we don't live in Oz, the earth we encumber
No cure in education or legislation, no peace for the population of any nation, too many the human number
