Pompous Pied Piper Ii

Like the pompous pied piper leading the way, chirping his tune of a dawning new day, frustrations were championed, oh how we followed, the ego stuffed shirt of a suit cold and hollow. From the top of the hill, he showed us the view, convincing our eyes it was harshly askew. Nearing the cliffs as if caught in a spell, he fed us like lambs from his poisonous well. Touting sweet taste of his truth well embittered, ignoring the signs of nonsensical twitter, rot with the smell of the nations decay, we drank from his cup of a water so gray. Watching and waiting for gifts of his gruel, the masses assured we were not made a fool, his promise of greatness was all we could see, with great expectations of how it would be. There's no turning back once we swore the man in, believing bright futures were soon to begin, blinding frustration gave evil its day for the pompous pied piper to lead us astray. He led us to thinking, all driven by fear, then gave his directives so cryptically clear, stripping the values by which we would stand before the American dream had been banned. Addicted to all the attention and glory, swiftly he moved to remain the top story, insisting on walls made of concrete and steel built by the anger and hate we should feel. Then some were shaken, disrupting his spell and found he was stealing our Liberty Bell. The fog began lifting and soon we would see the piper exposed as the fraud he would be. Time has a way, proven over again, of playing its imminent part. The shedding of light upon every mans soul, exposing his darkness of heart. No longer seduced by the piping we hear, choosing to see through the veil, Democracy once again fights to survive, let us all pray we prevail LET’S PUT THE SCUM BAG IN JAIL! ~Jeannie Cronin
