Members Of The Public Poem by Vincent Jolliffe

gallons of tears have passed by our ears for more than 2000 years
so many lies backed up with cries have also passed our eyes
we all know a liar and a thief
making money is their accepted belief
death makes us equal rich or poor black and white
do you know who sleeps in your bed at night
deception will always be around
where humans are found to be lost
this makes the world go round at someone elses cost
life to some is a game to play until the day they die
why is this so
why are people not told what most already know
swimming through lifes submerged deceit
looking into the eyes of peoples feet
remembering is easy after a upset
we only owe ourselves in debt
we cannot live our life without regret
we will be as greedy as you will let
