Smear This

SMEAR THIS

in the most contemporary sense,
this method comes into play
when it is fresh.
for centuries, its effect
has built a strong tradition.

strong-holds include wars,
and the politician.
these campaigns spear-headed
by world or national leaders,
often are under the scrutiny
of the public eye.

on a smaller scale;
the game is dirtier.
survival means:
work them over - the camouflage appearance
has power in two distinct ways
to expose injustices -
subtly - or not.

simplicity is understood.
a bucket, shovel, water and fresh soil
are the necessary components.

now it's on them.

at this point -
enough mud is left
for anybody else.

i'll man the bucket, shovel, water and fresh soil
for as long as it is needed.
public records tell me that
the rat race is a perpetual smear.
