Us And They Poem by Francis Duggan

They are words that we often hear the words us and they
And as a weapon they are used by some leaders of today
To villify their opponents the game of words they play
Those not with us our enemies that's what you hear them say.

The words us and they are often used by those who demonize
And some politicians as we know renowned for telling lies
About their opposition to all who wish to hear
They tell us who we ought to trust and who we ought to fear.

Politicians not a Worldly type they bend their words in two
And when they speak one cannot say if they speak false or true
And us and they words they often use division they create
You are against us they imply if you are not our mate.

The words us and they by powerful people used to justify
Their verbal attacks on their enemy those that they villify
And every day in the news you will hear some politician say
When talking of his opponents the words of us and they.
