Politics.
Poli-ticks.
Poli-tricks.
Neatly pressed suits sprouting soft-spoken lyrics,
It’s all part of the gimmicks.
Fooling you,
Fooling me,
They have lost our trust.
Can’t they see how great we’d be
If they weren’t so unjust?
Pretty smiles for the camera,
As they ruin the diaspora,
How could we trust you
When corruption’s all you brew?
Our point of view you misconstrue,
Your explanations, they’re too few
And don’t seem to be true.
Congratulations!
On your big debut

Trust.
The assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something.
Welcome to the Caribbean
No, trust does not reside here.
