Pandamonium
Between the pandemic and the politics,
It seems the truth won't reach out to all.
Since some will peddle only fear,
Seeking leadership they can recall.
Just like a virus, the false narratives have
Spread, where the rule of law seeks to restate.
Finding uncommon fertile soil, stained red by
Ignorance, and blinded to discriminate.
The tragic fraud continues its story, flawed
Only by reason & history to observe.
With hopes that the few powerful, look beyond
Their privilege, & do what's right, for those they serve.
