Truth in Politics


truth in politics
is a meaning, lengthy 
discussion
with your pet granite rock: It's beyond
grasp, beyond
reach, beyond
feelings  benign
neglect.

truth in politics
speaks with misused words:
deviously, dishonestly
concealing
racially, economically, socially― dividing. 

truth in politics 
blindsides with evil all true principles 
of the Christian faith and the sacrifice of Jesus!
Yet, attempts to persuade in His name
― hoping to fool
those of us 
who are too socially and politically knowledgable
to be fooled 

― and that’s the irony!
