THE SHAKE OF A HAND by Mark MaxeyWith a shake of a hand it was done
It was done
Moonlight bounced from the darkened hall
As he walked out
echo of his shoes on the linoleum faded
It was done
With only a shake of a hand
It was done
Twisted lies, torn beliefs, misled leads
It all led to the one
who had shook the hand
When it was done
The echo deafened the ward
It was done
All with a handshake
An agreement of sorts
Knowing the fate was sealed
Within that handshake
When it was done
You know Washington is mostly
The land of handshakes
The echo is deafening to the states
It is handled and done with
Just a simple handshake
But what is given…What is taken…What is left……
The working class is destroyed
With the wave of a hand
As long as we keep the
Separate separated then it will all fall
With the wave of hand
The US wants to force
The WTO to allow
Industrial American financiers
Take more control of the 3rd world businesses
All with a handshake
And it is done
So the next time you see a politician
And he offers his hand to help
Remember, it only takes a handshake
And the damage is done…
