Bleak Times Ahead Poem by Sandra Feldman

Bleak Times Ahead

Rating: 5.0


The Forces of Evil
Are marching on
Reinforced by a Party
That says that for
Division, They possess,
A Magic Wand,
Steadily, Steadily
Well organized
And planned,
They unfortunately
Are Marching On!

Today its the Statues
Indiscriminately,
Destroyed!
Tomorrow,
Law and order,
Shamelessly,
Attacked,
Then a Dictatorship
Is presumably elected
Headed by a Court Jester
With anti-national
Destructive, gestures
Working at it
For years!
We will never again
Be, as One.

We become a Nation
Defeated!
"With Liberty and Justice
For None! "

Demolition, positioned
Then we all can live
Without Hope,
Without a Tomorrow
As most
South American Nations
Till this day, have done.

We become a Nation / Defeated! " With Liberty and Justice/ For None! " This echoes the fears of god fearing and law abiding citizens who have thus far relished the gains of democracy. Thanks.

How truthfully you depicted the current situation. You couldn't say it better than " With Liberty and Justice, For None! " . Amazing.
