No Such Thing As Democracy! Poem by Ross DixPeek

No Such Thing as Democracy!


People love to talk of Democracy,
But, like a dog without fleas,
Truth be told, arrant fallacy,
Merely subjugation in varying degrees,
For, no matter time nor age,
Life has never been fair,
Never without its cage,
The wolf forever in lair,
Man cares not for equality
And sentiments most divine,
His only concern is his reality,
And to drink of life’s sweet wine,
And thus ever will be,
The vile Fat Cat,
Wealth, caste and hierarchy,
And the poor Drowned Rat!
