System, Broken, Mind

Juries decipher
If they’re a lifer
Verdicts are cyphers

System is broken
Public is hoping
Real laws be chosen

Lobbyist prevail
Politicians fail
Hiding money trails

And corruption taints
The parchment and paint
Where beliefs are laid

Minds are infested
Socially tested
See who’s invested

Willing to follow
And pill to swallow
Foot soldiers wallow

Enforcing the streets
Conventions for treats
Uniqueness depletes

We’re in a black hole
Missing life and soul
Only way to go

Mirrors shatter
So climb the ladder
To worlds not madder

Then the one that is
Yet we all exist
Within what’s the mist
