Greed & Corruption

I enjoy reading free verse poetry but have never liked the way I wrote it. It would always seem sloppy and like something was missing. Despite my critical eye I have written this free verse poem. I enjoyed creating it but the occasional rhyme still leaped out from time to time. I hope my readers will enjoy it as well.

Greed & Corruption

It’s hard to live in a society built on lies and greed.
Every level of every empire operates on manipulation, relabeled as supply and demand.
The food makes us sick and the doctors make us sicker.
The whole time proclaiming all natural and a better way of life.
Doctors get bonus for pushing products
Big pharma lines their pockets.
Paid off scientist to fit an agenda
Fabricated data to swindle the people
The government embezzles money and blames it on the public.
The school teaches our children fake history and lies.
They tried to rewrite history, I don’t know why I am surprised.
Processed food has become a way of life. Without it most don’t know how to survive.
That’s what they have wanted along to make us dependent and to stay where we belong.
Don’t question the narrative just go along.
Each generation sings the same ol song.
Don’t believe the media or what you see on TV.
Only listen to the truth you hear when you
go to your knees.
He will lead you through this treacherous of this world,
And bring you with Him when He restores her to her glory.
