Lanier Thomas Poet Rhyme

The Terror

The Terror newly started in eighteen twenty eight.
And has continued its reign for two hundred years straight. 
The party of evil began their fierce destruction
And started the once great Nation’s deconstruction.
They removed the Cherokee, Choctaw, Seminole, Creek
And the Chickasaw, while killing the strong and the weak.
They enslaved black people, as well as Irish whites, too.
The hated “one drop rule” from their sick perversion grew.
People still today are not free to be who they dream. 
Even Adolf Hitler thought this rule far too extreme.
The Party soon gave rise to severe agitation
And so started a Civil War through their aggression.
During that war they pioneered use of fake news
Something else that they still use to this day to confuse.
From that dark, wicked party terrorist groups began,
The Bushwackers, and the Raiders, and the Ku Klux Klan.
All black people were of the other party but with
White people and others were forced to vote for them swith. 
They kept the South in the deepest kind of poverty
And made well sure that the people lived ignorantly.
They dragged the suffering nation into two world wars. 
When black people tried to go to school they blocked the doors.
They used the National Guard and the police
So that education would never increase.
They made new socialist organizations.
All would serve the ‘massa’ for generations. 
Still worshipping at the red altar of Mars
They got our nation in the Vietnam War.
At the same time they stirred up strife back at home
And left our Nation in a deepening gloam. 
Through murder and election fraud very blatant
And often times through scandalous back door payment,
They managed more than once to secure the Pres’dency
Using foreign powers to gain the residency.
Disciples of Saul Alinsky they used chaos
To push their ways in like a herd of curacaos. 
Leaving America in disarray they used
Violence and the nation’s people they abused.
When will their dominion cease?
When will we finally have peace?
When will they finally decrease?

O Lord, grant us freedom from their tyranny.
