Truth Poem by Charles McMullen

Truth



Where is the truth we often ask,
This is usually a strenuous task.
People deceiving with there big black lies,
Even though they wear smart neckties.
'Highway Robbers' lurk on the streets,
Of many it's a game of terrible cheats.
Bottled water, £1: 80 on ferry,
This to some is very scary.
So fill up your bottle in the loo,
And hope you can make it to Waterloo!
Cheats abound all around -
Penny pinching and pinching a pound.
'Highwaymen Robbers' are out for the kill,
Are they really mentally ill?
Or is their soul sold to the Devil
Will they ever be honest and level?

Haha! Love this write on the atrociousness of the cost of living today. The reason the rich get richer and the poor get poorer! Did a great job on this!
