Far From Good People

The Human World as ever is not short of leaders But sadly good leaders remain in the few So many so called leaders have been disappointing And this is not saying anything that is new So many wealthy and famous leaders are far from good people They do abuse their power in quite a bad way So many because of them are only the poorer And this in itself is a sad thing to say So few leaders as is known live by good example They grow famous and wealthy at others expense They lack in honesty, kindness as well as compassion And to grow famous by wealth and deception to them makes good sense So many badly flawed and corrupted leaders There is no shortage of them in Countries Worldwide Whilst many are growing poorer they are growing more wealthy and powerful Those who are at the top of the social divide In the Human World there are winners and losers And for one to win big many does have to lose And so many yearn to be wealthy and famous And poverty anyone never does choose.
