Beasts of Terror

Full of hate,
they rushed across the land;
we cried while beasts of terror arrived.

Men erased
from the gullible minds;
women and children could pose no threat.

Shamed online,
if you raised the warning
that leaders cared not if you survived.

Veins of Corruption

feet dragged in the filth of apathy

liberals cut my tongue to bleed the hate

the mob's cheers and chants battered my ears

I wish I were brave enough to speak

wrapped me in snug warm wool

I always believed life would be fair
