all politicians dream
of managing foreign policy
because this is one thing
where little people
can not tell them what to do.

all foreign policy
always ends up killing children.
not one or two,
but hundreds and thousands,
and tens of thousands of children.

and there is zero money
invested in advancing democracy
but there are trillions invested
in weapons that always end up
killing children.

experts chased away politicians
from most of the important things like
medicine, science, engineering, innovation,
and the world got much better

unfortunately
politicians still found few issues to dominate
like climate crisis and foreign policy
and because of that we might all die soon
