The art and science of pretense
Should do time watching the media.

Of all the creatures in nature
The one that readily believes
Almost everything it hears
Is the human being.

Nomenclature & Truth

Our nomenclature
Homo sapiens
Is a misnomer;
Given our history
Instead of Wise man
We should be renamed
Foolish man, Homo insipiens.

Power & Decay

The greater the external power
The greater the internal decay;
What undermines great powers
Is greater inner powerlessness.

Abuse & Laws

Those who are most accomplished
At manipulating and abusing our laws
Are the very ones we entrust with our laws.

Affordable & Available

What’s unaffordable is unavailable;
An arrangement too expensive, is not an arrangement
A relationship too expensive, is not a relationship
A treatment too expensive, is not a treatment
A solution too expensive, is not a solution.

Denial & Realities

Denial and disbelief
Of our grim and sad realities
Postpones our pain, but hastens our fall.
