Smoldering dawn, arise from the sickened bedpost
I lay wet in your unfolding demeanor
Guide yourself over the pastures of something new and abused
6,000 iron crosses stitched over a dead thump
Beady eyes swollen from a night long delusion
Twenty dozen beings televised as a legion
I see their elongated mouths
Shaped into a jarring scream
They beckon the others who beckon in past
Black masks and a dismal, drab bat
Oh great mighty ouroboros of pain
We line up in collusion, in decorated tame
And just like a switch we swing carelessly when slaved
Sweaty, cold palms gripping our journalistic bias
And drained and covered in paste from a long days craze
My own faults hidden, for may in flame forgave
I can't help but ponder on the coming terror wave
A swift tsunami of confusion washing over us, turning our pupils blood red
Will we salivate when our vices call
When our perception of the New American Century turns powerhouse overnight
One side demonic and the other benign
I think not for they both decide
So the other is housed in colors of fire
Abound in old Russian circles they also conspire
To bring us away from the market of voice
Just like the bald wailing child waving a shrill, tainted choice
For in this unjust battle royale
The young Meyers lost in shuffle bore the most severe circumstance
This fringe dialect beginning to swipe up the innocent in its swirling tornado of design
Rolling over the founder fabric that is precious and precise
Yet off in the rafters the 15 pass around a spreadsheet
It designates the narrative and the proper channels of disgust
So that we can be handed our appropriate reaction
Shoveling what is seen, to be taken as word
Three branches on a tree that is growing and absurd
A series of events
The drone over Baghdad
The leaking of defense
Citizens on soil in a cafe, bombed penance
Birth certificates and the new president
Occupy begat the party begat the anti-fascist socialist
And out from it all some morphed conservative
Shat out an orange orangutan that shat all over this
Gave credence to the two sides that seem to dictate what it is
