Dwellers Of Glass Houses Poem by John Sensele

Glass and class houses break
Nepotism and opportunism beneficiaries speak
Cronyism and cynicism policies a system they wreck.

Myopia in a demagogue's reign reaches a peak
When police officers an armed man they condone
As feelings of anger fever pitch they leak

Although unemployed Americans can't get a relief loan
In the midst of covid 19 pandemic
When pharmaceutical companies potential vaccines they clone

As infectious diseases stubbornly grow endemic
Assailing teams of victims in their wake
As unprecedented bush fires ravage California like a fiery epidemic

In their boots Yankees quake and shake
As a divisive demagogue grow in his pronouncements in his fake lake.
