a glimpse of something how I see it 

Watching a crackdown is like witnessing the devil at work 
breaking into a camper van bodied armoured police 
destroying property with rifles and semi automatics dressed in riot gear 
if this is how you end a peaceful protest based on basic human rights 
Then seeing an old woman being trampled upon 
and an old man kneed to the ground with brutal force 
it looks to me like a communist takeover lawless beings
Corrupt dictators destroying the acts of freedom to stand up 
martial law declares war on the innocent no longer brainwashed 
this use of force clearly establishes a great division authority wise 
It tries to crush opposition by penalising them hauling people away 
the red army has risen crushing the righteous from opposing 
Sure many can now see criminals in suits are the worst kind 
its like the blind leading the blind into hell to begin with 
peace has never been achieved by means of force and dungeons

Very strong, true words, Liam. So much brutality inflicted on the innocent by those seeking to maintain their power. Your final line is so right on - dungeons will not secure peace. Be well. Brian
