Dirty Laundry

Dirty laundry hung like a thief
putrid, rank; the depressed air
countless times the story told
blindness comes to those who stare
bled dry and left to wilt
gaily, last years wines spilt
Nothing meaningful comes around
from God Kings or holy truth
history paints a bleak picture
of savagery most uncouth
everyone played a part
from right back at the start
I remember you in my youth
I thought I saw wisdoms glow
a genius, a work of art
all these things I yearned to know
nave, hopeful, I grew
only to find whats true
Bloodied is yesterdays image
tomorrow; a plastic face
goodbye to dogmatic blindness
hello to a new disgrace
a world where the cheap rule
a place no less as cruel
Dirty laundry hangs like a thief
forevermore putrid, rank
for, nothing much ever changes
on that, you can sure bank
each is a modern day
the same as yesterday.
