home Poem List next poem Forgetfulness And Lies We destroyed Iraq's army's resistance By destroying their largescale armaments Now we face off internal insistance With ancient religious temperaments For ways of life which some cannot condone These ways treat people by defining roles In which birthright determines which old throne Lords over phantasy their hope extols Quandries cast uncertain shadowed silence As designs fail troubled expectations Reality's exposed faulty pretense Embedded in the thought driving actions Initial rationales evolved to lies Creating distrust for largescale networks Which organize in government disguise Masking conspiracy's distortion and quirks England has fed its misinformation Into our decision apparatus She seems to seek to build consternation Between American and French status The past has slithered out of its dark halls Making some wonder about those we know Whose demons have excaped trechery's stalls Placing treason in America's flow (c)ERA 08:01 PM 4/27/03
