BULLET POINT

BULLET POINT

from the perspective
of the ordinary
the everyday
every flawed human
beaten down
   shorn of
courage

everybody
is in on it,
Hell, it’s
the way of the
world
drop
   in the ocean

but from
the perspective of
Truth

that stuff
in the Bible
that thing
in Plato

it looks
a bit
different

here every
lying journalist
should be
shot
or hanged

along with
every lying
politician

made to
pay back for
the death and
misery
their lies create

the cost of the rope
the price of the bullet

I myself am prepared to negotiate
