A Call To Honor

Sad is the lonely King who has no heart Who sits on his throne with anger and hate Where weakness obeys and plays its part To bow to their King who will subjugate People traded fear for the racist man He mastered deception with hidden deeds Conquered weak minded when his lies began As a thirst for power fulfilled his needs He strangled the truth with words that are false As his kingdom erupts with hateful eyes Majority see his manner repulse All but this King his followers despise A call to honor its strength reliant This self-proclaimed King, we rise defiantly 1/30/17
