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
