Truth Is Not Truth Justice Does Not Rule The World Poem by Terence George Craddock

even small children at an early age begin to realize
truth is not truth justice does not rule the world
he said she said they said who said if listened to
what we believe will have an impact become the truth;
the accepted truth the only truth if believed
what is justice justice rarely rules the world
honey money spent can sometimes buy justice
sweet money spent can sometimes buy justice;

if enough money is spent wisely spent
justice does not rule the world money rules the world
adults know secretly know money rules power rules;
adults fear despair when corrupt money buys injustice
elite power privilege rules justice has a purchase price
money can buy witnesses laws politicians governments;

justice is an ideal honest people aspire to
power money is an ideal wealth aspires to
to keep power what they already possess
to increase grow wealth to increase influence;
to rule lives within their sphere of influence
to rule the world by their wealth made rules

everyone must play by the rules;
except those who make the rules

except those who bend rules make rules break rules;
