Insurrection Day

The 6th of January – in the year Two Thousand and Twenty-One

Siege the capitol,

Billowing crowds,

Storm the ramparts,

Are you proud?

 

Gallantly streaming

Viral videos and

Fake news – oh say

Can you see it?

Can you see –

 

We the people

Have become

I the selfish

One nation

Under god

Became one Man

Under investigation

 

One crime

Crafted by many

To rule over the

Decade of twenty

 

But the people

Say what now?

Is it I’m afraid

or I Won’t bow?

 

Tell me in your words

What will you sow?

Who is your leader?

What will you follow?

 

Is it time for Justice

To shine down?

Or will this cycle

Always resound?
