Transition
Transitions are hard, and at times can be scary.
Like Frankenstein coming up out of the grave,
Or the devil staring you down with a stake.
Holy cow the fear is talking now,
And it seems as if there's
No way of stopping it now.
For many people this transition
Of power will be a scary process.
The fear of losing your home, or
Being separated from your family,
Haunts you like a bad dream.
At first it may have seemed false,
Like made up facts, just to get an edge.
But now as the transition gets closer,
The chances of deportation are closer.
Fear is running through people’s minds,
Like rats hiding within peep holes.
Change is on the horizon and
It's coming with a mission,
To shift the atmosphere
and make visions clear.
With another transition, underway,
All I can do is hope and pray;
The next man in office
shows us a better way.
Don't feed off us,
like a predator hunting prey.
