...but you had a goal, didn't you?
Rotten tomatoes
Thrown on your face.
You close your eyes
And keep on the speech...
There was a time when
They were white roses
though with no smell
When even you believed
In your speech
‘Cause you had an aim, remember?
Too soon we forget
Too soon you knew
this world you could not save
If only a little change...
Thus, now you see
It’s too late.
For it had nothing to do with it
But with them
standing behind your shade.
And money bought you
As it bought them...
Rotten tomatoes
On your face say:
History recalls
What they could never learn.

ah... Nice comments. Thank you my dear friends...
I am not into politics at all... And this is just the way I see it.
'Intimate' is how we see life in whichever matter.
'Different' , maybe or especially because:
These days in Spain we are being bombarded with electoral campaings to elect our local chiefs. Huge amounts of money spent on posters with their silly faces saying, 'Hey look at me: I can do it'...
There is such a big disppointment in people's lives because of this crisis. How dare they promise anything at all?
Same dog with different collar, we say here.
it's the same old pantomime...
Yet, they know someone they can still get to deceive...(including me!!?)
