Master Of Division Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The more deception is sweetened.
And entertained to distract from truth.
Less devastating are the facts redacted.
Subtracted.
From a reality to dilute and excuse it.
Allowing an adapting to chaos.
And acts of continued betrayal.
With a taste for treason in bits to reveal.
Becomes reduced by the one,
Loving to produce performances accepted...
That will leave the people duped but cheering,
The master of division and conflicts.
There to witness yet not to care,
How bottomless the pit,
They advocate and support.
Regardless of the depth and severity,
The quality of their lives...
Slides deeply into the pit of this abyss,
Applauded.
