The Dying of America

A painful darkness looms within this land. The prized American Dream is now at bay, by foolish minds that failed to understand, their precious price of freedom cast away. A time of maniacs has now become, loosed wild with full intent to thus destroy. A hate directed outward now is done, by mental madness of a deranged boy. They chose a felon king to take a place, betraying sacred trust of honest rule, comparing now himself to master race, who practiced programmed death in ways so cruel. Come forward spirit of unvanquished truth, and tie the vicious tongue of him now loosed. 11/6/2024
