Come Done



Time spent,
Come done to accomplish...
Nothing determined,
That anyone can say...
Has for them made no difference.
Or left significant benefits.
Is time spent,
To come with it done.
Hearing to listen to someone,
Choosing a way to blame and accuse...
Whoever is available to ruin their credibility.
And too often it is,
The one who has no idea...
What is going on to be given the attention.
To come done to attempt to explain,
Their involvement.

'I was told to keep my mouth closed.
But no one as of yet,
Has given me a reason why!'

'That to say and admit,
Makes no sense at all.
Then can you tell me this,
Who are the people blaming to accuse you...
In participating in their ruthless activities?'

'Well...
As I was cleaning out the trash,
Left under the circus tent.
I recognize them to be the clowns,
Removing their masks and costumes.
Then I saw them change,
Into business suits carrying briefcases.
And told to keep my mouth closed.
When immediately I asked,
One who claimed was running for president.
I identified later he was serious.
And...
To my surprise,
He was the master of ceremonies.
The main clown of them all.'

'Okay.
And who would that be?'

'I was told to keep my mouth closed.
However...
My guess would be,
The one still wearing the mask!
And demanded I hand over all the trash,
I collected from under the tent.'
