"Eyes At A Goggle"

The slaves to ill Supplicant repression,

at pivotal view is this renowned phase.

Hypocrisy crying to objection;

they grant it boldly with no digression.

This verve is not a fantasy's faze,

get however we can take, inveighs

this ailing tolerant raped suppression.

Give us power, their sight is at a haze;

melancholy witness to survival's

recompense for singular struggle.

A reaction to this the revival

of those who are the fittest. Archival

used records for certain rebuttal,

regifts the tongues so eager for fuddle

(Craft Lucifer tutors forte to rival)

Come and listen to all who will muddle

the reprehensive argot boondoggle.

Sense the sleight of hand, eyes at a goggle?

Author's Note

Political Rant. It happens right in front of our faces and few seem to give a damn!

Reviews

[Sheila Kline]

There are those who try to persuade us to believe that "ONE" cannot make a difference, that we are locked into a certain system, frame of thinking but with these concepts apathy abounds, and far too many view all from the sidelines.
Your write is poignant, and appreciated!! Keep speaking it as it really is and perhaps others will eventually listen!

[Crowley]

And has forever.....fool us once shame on you, fool use every minute of the f*****g day...shame on us. Great writing my man....power to the people.

[Jūdan FyreHeart]

A sonnet is far from the easiest of forms so great job on that front! Another strong viewpoint expressed very well from you =D

[MuSe Ampoule]

Oh, great rant Tommy!!! I'm one for unabashed detest toward the political follies and this speaks well to that. Especially love the last three lines, all statements true!

[Su' Nacnetaf]

Interesting writing, either my english is getting worse or the context is more complex than I'm used to, I will read it over to see how much I can take out of this ^^ Excellent poem though, I really enjoyed it.

[Jeff Bresee]

Well done... The style works very well for this.

[Zeitgeist Manifesto]

You will make it cool to be young and politically involved again.
Great work! I saw the politicians reading the constitution the
other day and wondered how they could do it with a straight face.
