Daunting the hypocrisy
when ruled by theocracy
or by kakistocracy
Both pretend democracy
How dismissively they act
to any thorough search of fact
while riveted they react
faced with emotional impact!
The shrill whistles of delusion
make tunes as if by calliope
Blindly they march with effusion
to music of faux reality …
… amidst fellow bewildered minions
hurling out their fact-free opinions!
