The Curse of Hypocrisy

The Curse of Hypocrisy

A Poem by Bob B

What a curse: hypocrisy!

Oh, when all is said and done,

Our president doesn’t serve the people;

He looks instead after number one.

 

The hypocrite says he wants a clean

Environment, and yet he'll dare

To serve the many companies that

Pollute the water and poison the air.

 

The current admin would rather give

More benefits to the heads

Of big pharma instead of helping

People desperate for the meds.

 

The right to vote is precious, but still

He helps those who have an obsession

Not with serving American voters

But serving instead voter suppression.

 

Catering to religious groups,

He wants to see his ratings spike,

And yet his uncouth words and lies

Are not very Christianlike.

 

When he doesn't get his way,

He seeks immediate retribution,

Not by obeying the law but by

Tromping on the Constitution.

 

When he campaigned, he complained

About Hillary's emails, and yet

The man himself remains a giant

National security threat.

 

Is the president motivated

Mainly by power or greed, or both?

When he was sworn into office, did

He take the Hypocritic Oath?
