Klio Tsitsikroni Poet Rhyme

I Dread To Read the Headlines

I dread to read the headlines 
They are so filled with strife 
The tyranny and trauma 
Has touched on every life. 
What is it with us humans
We think we are supreme
We are but a corpuscle 
It makes me want to scream. 
We entertain the bull that’s plastered on the screen
We don’t need to be tolerant this 
Borders on obscene. 
They’re constantly painting pictures of things you must believe 
There is a power struggle 
Like none you’ve ever seen. 
The west and east are at it 
The far left and the right 
The colour card is flashing red 
It’s time to get off pitch
This power hungry game they’re playing 
Democracy is fraying 
Innocents they’re slaying 
The devil is the puppeteer his pulling all the strings 
Yet they think they are kings. 
The trumpet call is coming. 
With it the mighty horn 
And Gods word and promise 
Will remove from Earth this thorn.
