Some Men At The Top
(©2016 John T. Windle/Vaudeville John)
Some men at the top,
some mayors and cops,
stamping decisions,
total full stops.
The old power structures
in cities, regimes;
octopus arms
reaching in seams,
mining the landscape,
teasing the lame,
drumming up support and
fixing the game.
Upcoming upstarts
initial their robes,
expanding brandings
and their egos. Hit it!
SOLO
Some men at the top
deserve to be there,
inherited fortunes,
presidential hair,
walking so tall;
new Nature's Alpha males,
sorting the system,
lubricating sales.
Puppetry states.
Compulsory gates
set up in proxy
'hind military dates.
Permission for anything
is not in the book.
Above the law baby-
so never a crook.
Sultans of sleaze
do what they please.
Get on your knees
while I unzip my
selfish genes.
Hugger-mugger handshakes,
the winkage and nods.
Pits full of snakes,
linkage with gods.
Mobsters and chief whips,
their hot trophy wives,
dupe the majority
and restructure lives.
Judges and lawyers;
truth versus guile.
Power to argue
sincerity styles.
Dictator states,
harpooning the whale,
go for the gun first,
turn the innocents pale.
Lashes cross the face.
Nose out of place.
Let me explain;
never do...that again.
SOLO
The drug of position.
The pressure of fame.
The power addiction,
need to entertain.
The best reservation.
The best restaurant.
Self preservation.
That's what I want.
Media moguls.
Senator friends.
Baiting the highways.
Predator bends.
Get thee behind me,
I lead from the front.
Follow me blindly
For you are the runt.
SOLO TO END
