Machiavelli,
well he
would be
wouldn't he?

poet and philosopher
in the age of Medici,
he
would be
wouldn't he?

and here in this year
where anything and everything,
is scrutinised
the politicians
still get away with their lies.

I'm not going fishing
because the fish are full of
plastic,
the rivers are caustic,

I am having a ***
the only fun I get.
