a stake through the heart of autocracy

a stake through the heart of autocracy


a stake through the heart of autocracy

the madness of this pure moment

needing to end this publicly

pulled out by the roots


a stake through the heart of autocracy

to save democracy, this union

all in the name of purity

of comity, of this nation


a stake through the heart of autocracy

the madness unleashed, this chaos

the millions deluded, enabled,

the furies on the march


a stake through the heart of autocracy

the mad-king, the child,

loving only the chaos, the rage,

the destruction of the center.
