≡ Demagogic

And so there it goes again

The defiant lifting of your chin

As your head begins to spin

With the circle of so-called logic



You make believe this is make believe

When it’s your own people you deceive

We know there is something up your sleeve

When all your speech is demagogic



High up in the seat of power

Getting more powerful by the hour

Your own body you devour

Devoutly ideologic



But when you come crashing down at last

As must every iconoclast

The surviving segregated caste

Will define the pathologic.



W.E. Fripp III
