Democracy Poem by Matthew Holloway

Democracy is a lie
Fulled by the corrupt and selfish
Those self serving parasites
Who take up office in team colours
Yet all play the same game
Where votes and public opinion
Are listened to on the clear mandate
That it suits what they wish it to be
The salary grabbing, expense claiming
Professional liars and traitors
Deliberate and vote as according
To their own paymasters
Or self interest
So much to the will of the people
A revaluation of the mind
Of the act, the voice, the written word
Needs to happen now to change
Perhaps save upon its own deathbed
Democracy be it only in name
