Author's Notes: "The Evil Hands of Tyranny" is a co-authored Unrhymed Tercet by Liam McDaid and me. In this metaphorical write, we touched on a some contemporaneous issues, situations, and truisms which we believe are generally reflective of a number of ongoing problems areas and challenges pervading the world stage today. We emphasized a high degree of poignancy in the various verses and the imagery used to reflect a demonstrative and compelling "word picture" of some "not-so-pleasant" things and circumstances which certainly have equally grim and nasty historical antecedents from mankind's past. Just look at our world situation today with all of the ongoing strife, conflict, tragedy, and ill-treatment of people -- and we believe your read of our poem here will highlight this situation and circumstance even further.
