Fear and Ignorance

Get through the dialectic before the day is late Don’t wait for an invitation as they slowly shut the gate The wolf now dressed in spun wool has broken from his cage He hungers deep inside our fear with ignorance and rage As traitors lurk in front of us to vanquish and to quell All time has stopped, their curses screamed assassins pledged to hell The moment to act is calling the odds both long and wide This battle worth refighting for those before who thought and died So if truth’s your greatest weapon wield it willingly and free The enemy is upon us —and must leave on bended knee (Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)

'He hungers deep inside our fears.' I love that line. Nicely done.
