When Leadership Falls Blind Poem by Terence George Craddock

When Leadership Falls Blind

what is truth? echoes
an oily old question,
wrinkle onion skin asked;

politics grips, a tight
wrapped multilayered
dirty game, truth said;

all power corrupts,
sought absolute power goes
to, skull demon head;

feeds infestation, ego
hearts political animals,
grip power justice blind;
