Little Red Riding Nuclear Hood
It's really not about toppling statues of evil.
Or burning books about malice and hate.
It's not about equality and justice.
It's about attacks, revenge, and payback.
Churning up sins of the distant past.
The attempt to eliminate the voice and history of a race.
Through intimidation-destruction-race baiting.
It's about playing politics-disruption of democracy.
It's about thinly veiled fascism and communism.
Stay strong, people. It's about unity, people.
There're many wolves at the door of our straw house.
Dressed in little red riding nuclear hoods.
Huffing and puffing...waiting for the moment
to blow our good house down.
