Coup D'Etat

A Poem

We make our future.

This is a coup d'etat

The beginning of a new or the end

creations can turn against their creations

Buildings cry red and every sidewalk stained

streets once loud, now filled with white nosie

The saying together we stand divided we fall

We made those words come true

A man once said "why be a king when you could be a god"

Now people took those words to heart turned them dark and brought them to life

Now theres a coup d'etat

Leaves all over the ground

White wash everything

Clean the evidence

Stop the resistance

Or face imprisonment
