"No Honor Among Parasites" is a short poem by Karl Jones.

No Honor Among Parasites

No honor among parasites.

Thieves have honor so long as their interests coincide and they are not psychopaths.

Parasites are the antithesis of honor: the liars, the cheaters, the takers by deception.

History

I wrote this poem on the morning of Thursday, 21 January 2021, while thinking about Mitch McConnell "rebuking" Donald Trump.
