“democracy is of the people, by the people, and for the people.” – Lincoln
Democracy is destroyed by the powerful with politicians fooling the people.
I am not sure if anyone has said the above before. If not, I lay claim to it.

Web
Web of lies that I spun
Entrapping people in its deadly grip
Berating my enemies to death
Web I spread far and wide
Ensnaring my victims
Bleeding then slowly till they die
Web world wide helped me spread
Empire that I could not have dreamt
By means ethical to grow full to the brim
Web so devious and bombastic
Empty with false promises trumpeted
Bewildered poor souls bamboozled
Web of mine is attracting new victims
Encircling like a vulture I survey
Bedazzled fools coming to play
Web so strong I weave
Enter at your own risk if you dare
Beware, once in, exit closed forever
Web of steel it is not
Entrapped in it one day I may
But till then time to enjoy and make hay
Weapons
Weapons of mass destruction
Ever lost in the desert sands
All we have left are the lives lost
People who will never come home
Only those benefited who spread the lie
Never thought of the damages they did
Soul searching not their creed
Weapons of every kind has blood in them
Everyone is aware of that
Anyone who says weapons do not kill
People kills, knows that without weapons
Order of magnitude of killing
Never will be the same
Sanity and peace may result without them
Weapons line the pockets of unscrupulous few
Eager to make profits with blood of others
All is fair in love and war they say
Preaching the mantra of profit
Ominous cult of mercenaries
Nations that preach peace armed to the teeth
Silently eyeing where to start next conflagration
Weapons of love, Cupid’s arrows piercing
Enemy hearts to melt
Always wonder what it would be like
Peace and love in the world
Obsession with weapons forgotten
Nary a killing, no more wars
Somber thoughts, impractical
