the shifting lamp


The hollow ring
The tears of despair
Learning the truth
The intoxicating habits of denial

The shifting lamp
Reflecting the shadow
Of a time to deflect blame
The truth wants to be buried

The pages of documents
The persons involved to betray
The trust of the nation
In the drawers of files

It rains the hollowness
The rubbish of explanation
The tears of the nation
The changing to ease the pain
