Robert Gruhn Poems

The Best Poem Of Robert Gruhn

So Many Empty Suits

Talking at us,
Over us and under us.
Concerned only with power and greed,
And the bottom line.

Promises broken,
Passing more laws,
To restrain us,
More propaganda to de-brain us.

Taxing us into oblivion;
Shepherds wearing ties.
Herding so many like sheep,
Between the fences of their rules.

Like cattle led to the slaughter,
Of their dignity,
Of their morality,
Of their very lives.

Bowing to Big Brother in a three-piece;
A little more precious privacy surrendered.
Struggling up a slippery slope,
Greased by pure stupidity.

Watching passively as freedoms erode,
Such a pathetic lot,
Controlled by the government.
Yet, wait a minute.

Aren't 'WE THE PEOPLE',
The government?
They don't think so,
And you know what?

They're right! ! ! !
