Hate Monger
by DCDave

Those who scorn my writing
Say it’s filled with hate.
They’re happier with trifles
Spooned out on a plate.

Yes, I hate injustice.
It makes me mad as hell;
I hate propaganda
And treachery, as well.

I hate being lied to.
What gives those jerks the right?
Do they think we’re stupid,
Or merely not so bright?

I hate needless bloodshed
Caused by those who rule.
I hate it when those tyrants
Play me for a fool.

And what about corruption?
What’s there not to hate,
When it’s claimed our leaders
And our Fourth Estate?

I hate their usurpation
Of the freedom throne,
As they manipulate us
For causes not our own.

David Martin
