Burn

Hello everyone. I hope you all enjoyed yesterdays addition to the blog. Today I want to share the below poem, Burn. It has a more political note than I usually keep in my poetry, but I felt that it went with the new rhyme scheme I'm trying out. I hope you enjoy and come back for more!
- James O. Cannon

Burn

Burn the world with your scornful eyes

Kill the people with your blatant lies

Starve the hungry with your budget size

Dehydrate the thirsty with your unholy ties.

Corporate murder under government eyes

Covering it all up with expensive, intricate lies.

Keeping the people in check with our militant size,

Silencing the quiet with your dark, faceless ties.

The poor prophets gone missing under assassin eyes,

Covered up with emptied medicine bottles and media lies,

All put together with your criminal networks size

and sealed for ever with your selfish, loveless ties.
