Quiet Not In Riot

Oh! How great it tastes: Steamy Riot
But is it delicious like Quiet?
How glorious it appears: Chariot 
Still in some wars and conflicts: Idiot…

I had had to talk about Riot:
The scene promising all but quiet,
The maddest jury of a chariot,
As men go for chaos like diet.

Real and fake claims clash with canisters 
They flee who had wished to spoil banisters:
Rioters who hang on: Real Monsters 
On the spur of the moment, songsters,
Also heroes for loving their words
And towards sad death moving in herds…

The crucial point: Riot not quiet:
While it reigneth all vultures flyeth.
