In
the beginning,
the Powers-That-Be
created government
and its institutions,
and the government
was with minimal
form, and void.
And the Powers-That-Be
caused the
foundations
of the government
to be half-cracked,
and they called
the foundations
Politics. And
the gutters,
being at water
level, oozed
with the substances
for which they
were to become
known.
The
Powers-That-Be
took the mud
of the gutter,
the waters
of the still,
and the gasses
of the air,
and they formed
a Politician.
They shuffled
into his heart
the spirit
of self-interest
and self-indulgence,
and the Politician
became a reigning
thing.
And
the Powers-That-Be
said, "Let
there be words." And
there were
words. And
they said, "Let
the words be
formed into
languages;
and the Powers-That-Be
heard simple
words being
used to communicate
thoughts and
exchange information.
And
behold! The
Politicians
brought forth
their own words,
and the words
didst flow
in great abundance.
And the Politician’s
words translateralized abstructional concepts
with much floatational
bloatum which
didst orbitate with
nondirective
expressions
of marginal
thoughts.
And
the words didst
flow to words,
wool didst
cover the eyes,
patriotic hype
didst dull
the ears, and idiotoxic concepts
didst shroud
the mind. And
the Politicians
didst wave
their arms,
furrow their
brows, and
thunder their
redundant warnings
against those
who wouldst
oppose them.
And
the spirit
of phoniness
continued to squaggle across
the face of
the earth.
