Cynical? (Free verse) by baughworm The least will be the
greatest.
What a nice
idea.
Iron curtain. White picket fence.
Both collapsed.
Gandhi took a bullet for a theory.
Billy Graham will rot in the ground with the rest of us.
The greatest will be the
greatest.
The biggest will take your money.
The shrewdest will con you into
renting out your soul.
Feed all the people, the people will burst.
Starve them, tell them that
they're full and they will
thank you for the bread.
Up the ladder:
sure did
Down the ladder:
The Bus

Yes, cynical. But the the last verse says a lot if you leave out "tell them that they're full." I don't see your point otherwise.
line break between that/they're is ungood.
