And how divine,
this so sacred line,
between the fly and the swine,
as to live without a spine.
two faced, two timing and far too fine.

To be so astute, in aspect of appearance
and what lack of cerebral activity there is!
For my homily, may the correct allegory be chosen.
As heterodox to your methods are my own.
A metaphor to obliterate your way of life.

The tribal drums beat out the endless protests,
both boar and bug, whose words are but useless jest.
Fire up the mob, to run their way to the empty trough.
Where they find desolation to add to their famine.
Brittle, they scream in the agony the subltely anticipated.

I am abject to your pious nature...
and I forever grieve the future...
for endless signs exclaim
the evidence to this vicious cycle,
of which my words about do now speak.
Another poem against political parties. Only this one is about the "leaders" of those parties. Keep in mind, I am neither republican or democrat. This one is probably the most complex one I've ever written.

This is a very interesting poem... I really enjoyed it! I really hate political parties too, but they're quite inevitable. Anyway, I love the description you use here. Excellent work! :)
