But WHAT?

With their 'Me-I-Am-It' logic,
These folks do not have a collective reflective bone...
In their bodies.
Or a clue how communication operates!
They believe they have been chosen to decide,
Humanity's fate.
And the pressure is on a precious few to deliver.
Without the nervousness of a quivering done.

Theft, greed and the aid of deceiving wickedness,
Propels them to deduce,
They've been 'allowed' to produce and achieve!
But WHAT?
What is it that a mindset this focused,
Achieves to accomplish?
Other than the failures that sit,
As if a plague has started by chewing locusts!
