Analysis of Ùnqualified



Although known to be unqualified,
To represent his own constituents.
Selected, elected and picked,
For a position to make decisions...
At the pinnacle of power to sit doing it.

Unconscious and incompetent.
Thoughtless without common sense.
The many who chose him,
To endorse, support and also follow.
Now blame to claim,
Of not knowing him for the deceiver he is.

Arguments and conflicts started,
Has just about everyone refusing to admit.
What they did to themselves,
With a focusing on image given.
Had a lot to do for power over others to get.

Yet...
That power they got soon became a flop.
Leaving a once great diverse society,
Divided into multiple divisions.
With no concrete decisions needed to make.
Left behind to protest how 'outsiders',
Came intentionally...
To bring their democratic process,
Warned and told...
Their own negligence to defend,
Had been the cause and reason...
For a shame they now feel.

However,
Addressing this to confess this publicly...
Still remains to have them accusing,
An ethnic diversity solicited to assist...
Ongoing issues,
Permitted and allowed to continue and exist.
Has nothing to do with bigotry or racism.
But everything they do to decide it done,
Is based upon...
Skin color, pretensions of an image,
Kept to keep.
And impressions to make,
To delude and fiction,
What today...
Has evidence of it,
Fading away from a truth they deny...
A quality of life once theirs to pride,
Is drying up to rot and die.
Right before their lieing eyes.
Unable to separate and face a future,
From a past their ancestors had.

Yet kept to keep,
Celebrated...
Are the omission of facts,
Historically erased from history.
A history made of ethnic faces.
Contributing a diverse variety of skills.
In all fields to participate and endeavor.
However...
Little attention of this is mentioned.

Although...
Attempts today are created and made,
To censor and eliminate the truth as is.
From the eyes, ears and minds of kids.
Already permanently suffering,
Mental instabilities and a host of other...
Issues to ignore by the ones who adore,
Living lives to lie and deceive reality.
Fictioned to celebrate a charading to parade!

'Why can't you be,
An adapting to adjust conformist.
Like the rest of us.'

'Well...
You choose weapons,
As your freedom of speech as an entitlement.
And I have chosen,
To speak as my choice of weapon to use.
But...
I am in no position to censor your weapons.
Or distort what had been,
A musket to use as an automatic rifle.
As an entitlement intended,
To wound and/ or murder innocent people!
This to discuss is a waste of time to debate.'

'To be continued.'

'This,  
I am sure...
Remains on your list of priorities.'
