the corrupt must go

Quote from Daily Maverick:

“Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases:
If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.”

Ronald Reagan


so u look my way and want my support
could it be only because u were caught
a change of tactic required
in the hope of not being fired.

an awakening has brought about a change
not only sanity but corruption to derange
it is time people are held accountable
to shoo them out of office acceptable.

how funny that even though we knew
to point out the corrupt was our due
yet somehow we turned a blind eye
to our monies in corrupt officials pockets fly.

what is it about the masses oppressed or not
the freedom to speech be forgot
easily swayed by media and who knows who
the reality of the rot exposed only by a few.

so stoned be those pioneers who say it as it is
in pure luxury the corrupt laugh with bliss
and thank their lucky stars for the dormant mass
for to call them stupid would be crass.

in our desire to believe in the goodness of the elected
in their failure to live up to the promised and expected
a dullness and misapprehension begins to settle
for it looks ahead, lies a real battle.
RB.
