Propaganda

PROPAGANDA

by Glenn Hall

The end of all things is at hand
and the world takes no notice;
our leaders lie continually
and the media reports it as truthful news

Political ministers
now speak of first-strike nuclear war,
a strategy unheard of when the doctrine of mutually assured destruction
convinced the minds of men who made the world’s battle plans

But we live in a new day when insanity rules;
no one can be convinced of anything
which does not already conform to his, or her (of course),
politically correct or demon-inspired doctrine and agenda

And so the propagandists
prepare America for yet another war,
a war she will not win, indeed
a war she cannot win this time.
