In the Land of Lies

We live in perilous times and distract ourselves with the slight of hand presented to us by politicians and the entertainment world alike. Ah, to be young and stupid again instead of just not young.

My eyes bleed and my brain explodes over the bizarre, corrupt and deadly array of political actions spewing forth from our country's leaders on a daily basis.

There comes a time when the heart is constricted by ever tightening bonds of frustration and helplessness over their deeds of our despicable politicians who, with the morals of alley cats and the less backbone than the sardines in the can of King Oscar I snacked on yesterday, sell our great land down the river and over the falls.

Deceit and greed. Our leaders and their followers...us. We are all responsible. We want and we lie, to others and to ourselves. We want and we refuse to sacrifice. We want, want, want and refuse to believe the few truthsayers among us who cry out like the prophets of old and are excoriated and condemned for their courage.

The father of lies, Lucifer, is greedy also. His greed and mendacity got him kicked out of paradise.

He rules hell.

When we are kicked out of our paradise - this beautiful land of bounty, this land of the free and home of the brave - where will we end up?
