Turmoil Soup

Turmoil Soup: 
by M. Griswold  09112020

Stirring the pot until fully hot.
Bringing the turmoil to it's boil.
Then to see what is and is not.
Add to the broth a li'l bit of oil.

Add a li'l more fuel to the fire.

Tasting now with ladle in hand.
Sipping again for flavored desire.
Is the soup well made as planned?
Is it ready, it is truly fully dire?

Add a li'l more fuel to the fire.

Other ingredients are in the need.
A tad more hate and  pinch of fear.
With a little lust for power to feed.
One more death that makes it clear.

Add a li'l more fuel to the fire.

It's all in how you get them stewing.
Until their ready to dish up a friend.
A peoples riot is within it's brewing.
Creating turmoil soup without an end.
