Thine Own Bosom [rev] Poem by Margaret Alice Second

How DARE authorities circulate the Public Service
Code of Conduct when the Public Service HEAD
doesn't have a clue what ethics entail: Criminals in
Public Service, handmaidens, henchmen & friends
loot POOREST unscathed while micromanagement
of the least important official without money or power
leads to such absurd administration & bureaucracy,
doubling or more the cost of probable loss through

Them; and an increase in the public service burden
& inefficiency - compared to the staggering amounts
head criminals in the country steal, and yet worse is,
Dear President does not understand why everyone
is so upset given that money-grabbing as politicians
appears to be world-wide sport: He's right, but others
are more sophisticated: capitalists create jobs, sharing
with society, providing education & technology & they

Do not keep the rural people in a still death-grip while
ignoring international standards, with no concern for
jobless youths forever poor; the small officials in the
trenches without authority, intimidated - as if we can
change anything - are absurd, a tragic irony, fleeced
& blackmailed into paying for the fun of arch-criminals
without respect for others or for themselves as self-
esteem is only gained through integrity & respect for

Freedom; my ethics are based on spiritualism and my
belief in consciousness is not prescribed by religion's
judgment for the sin of being human; therefore put thine
hand unto thine own bosom before thee play watchdog,
accuser, judge & jury at the same time…
