"We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing" By Konstantin Josef Jireček, a Czech historian, diplomat and slavist.

Astonishing mendacity

By Atok Dan

———

He lies comfortably,

With no caring attitudes,

Its lethal mouth busy spreading fire,

Setting a blaze comfortably sleeping souls

Outrageously a lie

——–

His eyes glow with hate

And tongue swelters with war

Killing innocent lives healthily

An astonishing mendacity that no one could refute

His legs tremble on unburied corpses

———

Voices that seek justice ended unjustly

Attack in the dead of night

Their heads torpedoed over deadly

An astonishing mendacity

In dead sleep,

Pathological facts can still banish

———–

Our souls long for godly guidance

Waiting to see daybreak

They never tend to sleep

Unless I’m dead alive

Emptying arrow’s magazines on me

Hell or heaven could be my destiny

The act of powerful lies,

Intolerable to ideas that help reform

———

The souls of suffering child deprives of happiness

Their lies substitute truth,

And truth takes the place of lie

The astonishing mendacity
