Goodbye To Bribery



Goodbye to bribery.
And the cost it takes,
To pay off fraud.

Goodbye to deceivers.
Willing to lie.
To protect the leadership,
Of their 'wannabe' juvenile and mindless...
Crime boss.

Goodbye to a life lived fictioned.
Introduced to delude a truth that exists.
With overwhelming evidence.
Produced publicly  to examine as is.
Regardless who may or may not,
Believe it to defend...
Their chosen leader selected and picked.
They without common sense,
Or use of consciousness.
Had permitted themselves,
To be duped and tricked.

Yet...
Just for the entertainment they stay,
Supporting to endorse and follow behind.
One accustomed.
To disobey rules and laws calling them all,
A witch hunt.
Conducted by a bunch of idiots.
While sitting in a courtroom,
Facing both judge and jury.
Hearing a declaration of being innocent.
Coming out of mouth and mind,
Of one clearly mentally unfit.
But has the ability to be empathized,
By those who wish someone like this...
Quickly adorn a mask to put on a face.
And with a cape to wear that proves,
Their chosen leader...
Eventually handcuffed and led away.
To a padded cell to stay confined.
With no given time to find,
Cameras or a microphone.
Nowhere near anyone to hear,
'What they've done to me,
They will do to you too!
But before they do.
Be sure you get,
A good writer and an excellent director.
Who both can follow a script without,
Rewriting the words I had in my mouth.
Then...
Have me sit to believe,
On a TV show to receive top ratings.
To then,
Fire anyone as I damn well please.
With a taking away 'my' reality!
WHERE IS THE JUSTICE?'
WHAT HAS HAPPENED,
TO MY RIGHT AND ENTITLEMENT...
TO TELL 'little' WHITE LIES?!

LISTEN TO ME.
Don't let them come after you.
To do what is being done to me!'

What has happened to his lawyers?

'They all rushed to cram into a bus.
Feeling safe and protected.
Knowing none of them,
Will be crushed under it!'
