May 13: Chicanery - The use of trickery to achieve a political, financial, or legal purpose

We see

We hear

We know more about this

Than we need to

It’s as old as time

Have we learned nothing?

 

In the end,

No one wins

Or so we think…..

 

Can this be used for good?

Or is this act completely evil

despite intentions?

 

At this point,

We already know there’s no such thing

No such as good

Or evil

By itself.

 

The ambiguity of all this,

Puts us in gridlock

Do we want to be the ones who stop this?

Someone has to do it.

 

So one sacrifices everything

To stop this

You are the unsung hero

 

Thank you,

And I’m sorry
