Conflicts Of Reality Dilutes The Truth For Many

There are those exclaiming,
The need and wish for less government...
In their lives.
In their wallets.
And their homes.

But...
Also these are the same people,
Who protest to have more money...
Of their own in their pockets.

Conflicts of reality dilutes the truth for many!

And not a face of theirs appears,
On the currency.
And if it is a penny or a dollar bill that is possessed,
The image imprinted has been a president.
Who has been elected to lead the government.
Few protesting keep this addressed.

And it seems many people will soon get their wish,
Because less government...
Is definitely going to be removed from the pockets.
And...
The evidence of that has already begun to appear.
Or disappear,
Depending on which side of the coin...
Is observed by many pinching pennies,
Being from them removed.
