Good and honest people can do evil Calculating what might be the level Of suffering the greater good redeems. Good and honest people can do evil As well-honed ideologies give ample Right and cause to murder for one's dreams. In politics, a saint can be a devil, Romantic as the idealistic rebel, Tyrannical as truth splits at the seams. Good and honest people can do evil, Reducing life's complexities to simple Slogans that are best conveyed by screams. In politics, a saint can be a devil, More saint, more devil, a hammer on an anvil That shapes the willing faithful into fiends. Good and honest people can do evil. In politics, a saint can be a devil. Copyright by Nicholas Gordon. Free for personal or non-commercial use.
