Are They Telling You The Truth

Are They Telling You The Truth

A Poem by peter Duggan
"

Who believes politicians, and the news these days? Not me, not me

"


Are They Telling you The truth?


When the governments voice come through

With forced sincerity they come to you

Tell me why do you believe these guys

Does it not come to you that Lies

Are mostly what you hear from them

Believe me their words, they're not gems

All they ever want to do

Is place control on all of you


When you listen to the news

And all their words you do accrue

Do you think they're telling you the truth?

It seems they stand there all aloof

But they're doing what they're told to

Often they're just fooling you

So when you listen to these guys

Think you 'Are they telling lies'


When you go off to the poll booth

Do you think you have the truth

Cause they do give you all their promises

Though everything it goes amiss

They'll tell you with sincerity

How wonderful they're bound to be

Because you've placed them into power

Just know 'these truths will never flower'

Hi Coyote, here in Oz we are forced to vote, but me, I trust none of these fools and never vote on any of them. I just go there and that's all. I was a medic in the army, and I am so glad I helped both sides and never had bad thoughts on any of them. I appreciate your kind words, my friend...Peter

I vote and I hope the vote had reason.
"How wonderful they're bound to be
Because you've placed them into power
Just know 'these truths will never flower'"
I worked for big companies. The higher-up you go. You see the heartless and coldness in the leadership. I was in-charge of loading trains in the Army for my Division. I went to the big meeting with the Generals. Decisions made about life. Make the soldiers, just pawns in a chess-game. Powerful and wise words shared Peter.

Politicians from where I am sitting are mainly liars as well as crooks. I don't vote at all for any of them. I have no respect for them at all

Politics just follow patterns what others follow too. How many times we tell lies each other. Cause we gain some profit. Not lies but hypocrisy make this world real hell. How we changed our nature and how we keep our self out of the own darkness and personal fears. We are the one who make choice and we are the one who can be better then them.
