Than Words Can Ever Say Poem by Francis Duggan

We are ruled by the egotistical the arrogant kind
More compassionate people than they are would not be hard to find
The fair go they talk of does not apply to all,
People of great power but in their thinking quite small
That the majority of voters lack in compassion happens to be true
And sadly this is for to give them their due
Many lacking in compassion and it seems sad to say
That many self centered people in the Human World of today
The it does not matter about others i am doing okay
In the twenty first century is how it is with many it does seem this way
The people who govern us tell more about us than we even realize
They are becoming more rare the compassionate and wise
The people we voted to govern us on election day
Of us does say more than words can ever say.
