In The End (+1)

Politicians…

 

Married  

to the sound

of their own voice

 

Divorced

from those

who elected them to serve

 

Philanderers

of a

bigger truth

 

Infidels

in the end

  —only to themselves

A Writer

 

If I wanted to show you what I see

 I’d be a painter

 

If I wanted to offer you salvation

 I’d be a preacher

 

If I wanted to play to your fantasy

 I’d be an actor

 

But I decided to give you more than that

   —I’m a writer
