"Demagogue"

"Demagogue"

We're waiting on an anti-Christ.

In the land of the free, the home of the brave

You thought some of us didn't deserve the benefit of being new

but that's how you won this race.

Decades of political correctness run amok and not put in check;

sometimes we react viscerally

before we think things through thoroughly..

but those external stimuli

which once would have made you happy

to see us cry

are now our violent reactions

against years of torment from the likes of you which belie

my fear of being a victim so you can be heard

because of your feeling alienated just as I was for years.

Your fury, your furor, your leader

Your fetishes put you in his cult

but depending on how you conform blindfolded

and if you swallow

you could be exalted when Jekyll, Hyde and their puppeteer

are all in agreement your praises must be sung

because until the strings come loose

he wants you under his thumb.
