As Fascists Threaten Still by easyeverett1



The One who had the truth entombed
resides inside each lie.
The lie becomes the truth consumed
through One truth born on high.

The land turns dark though bright the light
as all traditions die.
Land once so rich now land of blight
as fear pollutes the sky.

Minds great in girth search out the worm,
infectious like a plague,
that makes all human tissues squirm:
great minds can only beg.

And as we lose democracy
we also lose our will.
The answer clear in history
as fascists threaten still.
