....A Bit More...Transparent....Today Poem by James B. Earley

Podium's pandemonium
...Catastrophic...our way
Once veiled contradictions
....A bit more transparent today

Double downed rhetoric
....Spoken in terms resolute
A White House once respected
Today's occupant...prostitutes

....Disturbed mentality....perhaps
'Lust'....for predecessor...it seems
There's a passion whose fashion
....'Tis obsessed with 'those' dreams

How else does one explain
...The fire...within....that we see
When the eyes divulging
...What's held...emotionally

Unbalanced....that reaction
...When one's tormented inside
What we've all long suspected
...The eyes...no longer...can.hide

Thus podium's pandemonium
....Even....more cloudy...the way
Once veiled contradictions
...A bit more...transparent....today
