Distorted Perception

Lost in anxieties maze
toxins leach from chaos
stretching sanities limits. 

Source of rapid fire emotions
mental positions overflow
tainting commonsense with fear.

Anxieties demons plant hatred
upon intolerances fertile fields
watching, each side harvest paranoia.

Communication is in melt down
constant accusations and blame
for none can keep a civil tonge.

So both side suffer
Distorted preceptions, questioning
what is the American way?

This is happening more often now than ever before. "Source of rapid fire emotions mental positions overflow tainting commonsense with fear." well penned!
