WHILE WE WERE TRUSTING

The swamp people
Use fake money to
Push a fake ideology
Fighting each other
Rather than our enemies
They de-fund the police
Then cry out for help
Condemn the border fence
Then live in gated homes
Surrounded by fences
Just to be safe from
The souls living on the streets
Right outside their yards
Step by step solutions
Are never employed
Lip service is paid, giving
Honor to the spoke-person 
The street is a sewer
The swamp is a sewer
Where are the sewer cleaners?
They have moved away
Where are the controllers 
Of the drug traffic
How many thousands
Do we want to see dead?
People need help, but
Where are the helpers
Holed up in their gated homes
Citizens cry out
No one is listening
Leaders hide from the problem
Search for respite
Private jets fly them to
A safe island and
There they can laugh
All of this and more
While we were trusting
