The spin machine works overtime To convince you all is well To vote right you must believe it Or their plans go all to hell Never before was there a time When fantasy could replace fact When manipulation was the rule And supplied what reality lacked I worry you don’t have access To what’s REALLY going down Forget the press and get online BENEATH that spinning sound I know that there are sound bytes Designed to mould your view We must reach more solid ground There are many just like you There’s this girl called Riverbend She lives in wrecked Baghdad Read her log of life Though the truth may make you sad In this time of lies We must talk - one to one The powers-that-be we all know Won't drop their smoking gun Forget the PR, the spin, the hype And look deep inside alone Ignore these endless fantasies And their lying deadly drone O/ You’ll find Riverbend at http://riverbendblog.blogspot.com/ ;D [comments] => 1 [counter] => 173 [topic] => 41 [informant] => Steeleyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => political )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
