Revolution

Week 7

same problem again,
the end of our wits
together we fix it,
bit by brutal bit

violent, aggressive,
a match for their hate
bigotry unfounded,
nearly grown too late

out in the streets,
people gather to rally
turning huge evil,
over onto its belly

a peaceful time,
not here to stay
history repeats,
poised to betray

~ P

The cycle kicked off for another spin
A spark that ignited our fire inside
To start a fight we surely cannot win
Off to battle just to know that we tried

Again we are shouting 'revolution'
Outraged by the cutting of services
Only to buy their misattribution
As we clap for our bread and circuses

Now back to calling for a grand restore
Waiting idle for scheduled appeasement
Although that spark was greater than before
Maybe next time will be our achievement
