American Furor


Raise the white flag of defiance,
surrender to the hate

Offer no concession or compliance,
a vote count short 
is the winning debate

Cry ballot thievery trace:
Urban poll pickpockets, of color suspect voices,
stole the presidential race

Let that dark anger drive you loss loco,
allow this crazy Philly notion
spur lawyer-up snort motion:
Rebel kick start your swastika sue mojo

American furor
says peaceful transition
of power
will not be solemnly given

Hear that new Teutonic tongue
speak with an old Prussian accent
Indignant ears love how the
uncivil voice of their native son

Sioux for war reservations —
Elector path 
has been illegally taken

Reject all olive branch negotiations,
defective math
is the algorithm cause forsaken

Summon the Aryan spirit of
your American furor

Let the blackness of this seethe
make melanin hearts tear bleed

Show them the raw power 
of Minority rule
Bugle blows at rallying hour — 

Fear time to
pirate play the
parakeet fool 

Rush into litigious battle,
stand by 
your sour ground

Let not your American furor
stand idle
Unleash the rage bound

Rise uncaged angrily,
and curse that Assimilation mirror
Visigoth tout your American furor

Vandals of the rear guard,
foreswear White exhaust noise
is cloudy grey smoke purer

Hear the brassy blown, belligerent blast
Crimson wavy call to raise the white flag
Ivory enamel refute of popular votes cast
Black reboot of an era thought long past

Stylus diamond-tip studded ears
shouting beer garden terror
Given marching orders
to revive the blitzkrieg error

Force the world to hear the 
ugly spin echoes of
Depression vinyl Führer

I am not USA but I feel for this country. I cannot foresee any peace in the future.

I like the play on Furor and Fuhrer - it isn't far from the past's sad truth with some of that minority white exhaust noise! good one :)

WoW! Freddie, Your pen is like no other; no one spills ink like you. They can rant all day long that the election if they want to. All I know is his lease up. Some else is moving in the White House. I enjoy the read. Have a wonderful day, my friend:-) Alexis
