this is...

this is not new
in the history of our world
leaders out of touch with the people
bloated and arrogant
smug and slick

this is not new
to anyone who has experienced
abandonment, desolation and loss
on a catastrophic level

this is not new
in historic times and now
when thousands are left to starve
or murdered and burried in mass graves

ignorance, soulessness, greed, power,
in a leader
create
rage, anguish, dissolutionment and death
in a people

this is not new
it is contemptible.
