redactions

Redacted to a darkened void

where sins committed

sit in shaded corners

full of shame.

Perjured proof as Kompromat

the crime of grimy goings on

goes on and on and on.

Light is shone and shadows fall

yet still the perpetrators

fail to face their foulness full.

Opprobrium washes over the facts

and dries itself in unwept tears,

as justice waits impatiently

the victims fail to taste the blood of honour.

These days are darkened by inaction

and the forces of redaction

cloud the hopes we have for decency

and order in our world.
