The Tenor of the Time

     The democratic West 
        opts for the collective mind
        in thrall to the tenor of the time

     But terrorism unchecked
        ‘s’ always a losing bet

     ‘Cos you don’t need some ‘great reason’
        ~ Fighting terror’s always in season

Tom Cunningham Date: 4/29/2025 11:16:00 PM Terror used to shock people, not anymore, it's so common these days. Its like whacking a mole and destroying it but then another pops up. The world is an evil place right now. Tom Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 4/30/2025 8:26:00 PM Like the hydra-headed monster it is...
