The Most Dangerous People In the World

They have always been among us,
most known personally - quite a few.

Yet now it feels like a tipping point,
the needle has swung their way
and they are now in control.

They are not terrorists, spies, or aliens,
they are far more dangerous than those,
their very existence is an existential peril.

Many are well educated, erudite and persuasive
these are the shock troops that lead the followers.
The dumb, the sly, manipulating, walking
talking dumb,
these are our coming doom.

We have no hope now, the tide has turned,
only a miracle can save us.
Pray for us.
