When the powerful don’t know
they are corrupt
Will they be arrested as
being morally bankrupt?
Or will they say: “they have
their ‘values’ and standards”?
And that they will continue
their rule, “moving forward”
When the powerful have no
ethics, or principles
Is their government filled
with grovelling disciples?
People who close their eyes
and help disguise
The ongoing corruption and
constant blatant lies
When the powerful control any
country
Does interference become an
industry?
Can threats be concealed, as
not really real?
And just a “nice way”, of
trying to close a deal
When the powerful use
“acceptable pressure”
Is it camouflaged as just,
“helping a venture”?
Would the rule of law be
undermined?
Because the powerful were
just trying to be “kind”
When the powerful attempt to
subvert justice
Are they acting with
criminality and malice?
Will the country affected say
“enough”?
When the powerful don’t know,
they are corrupt

obligation of patriotism.” G. Edward Griffin
