The Unhidden
"The Unhidden"
courage winks
and grins
Spring is in his step
harsh courage wins
unhidden
staring down
the barrel of a lens
there’s a mad man
losing marbles
sitting all alone
cornered
without friends
a bully bringing in his
paid assassins
courage winks
and grins
he knows
cowards
without friends
always lose
in the end
courage winks
and grins
he's centre stage
the world debates
watches and waits
for a bipartisan
saviour
to march in
truth
always wins
out in the open now
courage
winks and grins
with the whole
world watching
the end
or
the beginning
to
begin
Z swastika
not on his watch
Storm trooper
Russian Rouble roulette
coiling scales an oily blini
downing nuclear pancake,
deep fake coward
alone end of the table
hell bitten, no friends
sits Vlad the Impaler
courage winks
and grins
Spring is in his step
harsh courage wins
unhidden
staring down
the barrel of a lens
Holocaust
nyet
not on his watch
never again
