the newscasters

the newscasters
put on their game face
play 
like 
everything they say 
is real and true
a carnival 
for our mental pleasure
that is almost humbling in scope

are we really this hard to control us humans?
are we really incapable of ruling ourselves civilly?
are we still ruled at our base
 by miss-firing jungle fears for survival?

Is the cop on the corner the only law that matters
the club and the threat of prison all that holds us back?
