Bumbling Rant of a Cynic

Bumbling Rant of a Cynic

A Poem by Against All Authority
"

indignant rant.

"
In the arena of money talks we remain voiceless,
suppressed by incessant clanging of accumulating coins,
beset by enticing illusions to absorb attention,
faced with faux choices behind faux faces professing faux morals,
yet, it is us whom they reproach.
That we should be grateful for the gift so graciously bestowed,
for we, they claim, are the sole possessors of who should reflect our morals, ideals, ethics; for we are too reticent and cowardice to proclaim these morals, ideals, ethics, ourselves.
many of us bask in praise at electing, ever four or so years, another master to which is merely a change in visage, but is teeming with the same corrupt morals.
