Hypocrisy

It is so easy
to be politically correct
and adored.

It is so easy
to say the right things
so no one gets bored.

But the mind plays tricks
when it comes to
passion and lust.

The mind plays tricks
when greed and avarice
overcomes trust.

We cannot be
completely honest
for it is not a must.

What we must do
is be honest with ourselves
for who else can we trust?

Multitasking is required
in our hectic lives.

Separating work from home
like worker bees in hives.

When we separate
good from bad, exchange
morality for sad.

We are but a sham,
a hapless ham,
and have been had.

Might as well admit,
what no oath will get.
We are a hypocrite.

As most of us are in trueth I suppose, in as much as for example a parent that smokes will probably tell thier children not to smoke because it is bad for them, or one that swears may reprimand thiers for swearing, none of us would like to be robbed, but many wouldn't mind buying something on the cheep without asking too many questions about where it came from.
an excellent poem and very thought prevoking.
thank you for sharing it.

Quite the philosophic write Ron. It is deplorable what some must do to survive in a convoluted system.

hypocracy and politics are congruent terms ... i don't trust any of them ...

I went to a "motivational" lecture last week, interesting show,

and somewhat evangelical... one note: the speaker said one thing I

agree with; multi-tasking is a mindless skill. When you come from a

large family you learn multi-tasking from birth. Multi-tasking

comprises rote "tasks" that must be done and done away with, in

order to free the mind for creative and spiritual pursuits. Hypocrisy

is something unavoidable like death and taxes.

Prime example, eh? Perhaps politician and hypocrit could be interchangeable.
