Even If Proven True



Impeached.
Not once but twice.
In one term of leadership.
Witnessed to know it,
Done to do.
More have shown their support to give,
To one nolonger...
Sitting in that position.
Yet...
Is encouraged,
With a giving of endorsement...
Overwhelmingly with wishes,
From those wanting...
A return of the same leadership.
Regardless of the evidence,
Produced and exposed to what one did.

Even if proven to be true.
Proof of corruption, fraud and deception.
Has been revealed of criminal activity.
Conducted to have someone like this,
Facing several indictments.
That seem everyday,
To pop up everywhere.
Making the average person,
Humiliated with their integrity disgraced.
Those following along,
Are protesting to demand transparency.
Since what is happening to them,
Continues to be disbelieved.
No matter what the facts.
Or the truth of its reality.
Why?

'Why?
It's clear and simple to me!
Has any of this been made into a movie yet?'

Not to my knowledge.

'Okay.
So...
All of this to your knowledge,
Is nothing more,
Than vicious, backstabbing allegations.
Because of one's status, wealth.
And recognizable accomplishments.
That leader had shown,
With a competence known...
No one else possessed.'

Uh?

'Always, always...
There are people like you,
Jealous and envious of those who sit...
In positions of leadership.
Who not only give image of leadership.
But also capable to perform,
In a well produced TV show.
Staged to hear someone who deceives.
Telling others they are 'fired'.
Because of their intelligent qualities!'

What?

'Like I said,
Where is the movie.
That proves any of your nonsense is true?
And,
Until that happens,
Guess what?'

I'm listening.

'All that fake stuff to make up?
Is just what it is.
Faked to make up stuff.
Just to keep people like us,
Believing in your perception of truth.
To confuse what reality is for us meant to be!'

Wow.

'Don't 'WOW' your 'WOW' to me.
I have known what reality is to be,
Far longer than you have.
Okay?
You people are always trying to find fault,
With our way of life to criticize it lived.'

Inspite of all the hypocrisy.
And fiction created meant to keep,
Minds addicted to delusion.
Denial and self defeat.

'Hey...
Don't accuse me to blame,
For your mind being messed up.
If and when the movie is made,
I may then be convinced...
Debating over the production of it,
Could only then be a reason...
To find time to discuss,
How much of it is close to the truth!
And...
How much money it makes.
With fantastic rating.'
