The Insurrection never stopped – v2
The Insurrection never stopped
Its toxic roots were deeply planted -
the Big Lie continues;
Life as we have known it is no more
a battle for our country rages.
Democracy itself is in peril, already shaken,
lives are hanging in the balance
An enemy within, without
fed by lies, pernicious propaganda.
The Insurrection continues;
sedition never stopped truly.
Obstruction of justice,
white supremacy, division,
Sons of the Confederacy
RICO statutes, conspiracy
the fall of Democracy all in play.
January 6th was no aberration;
It is part of a detailed battle plan.
The Insurrection started
in Nixon’s Southern Strategy, earlier.
The Insurrection never ended;
We are facing terror, open warfare,
the threat to democracy is real
a live present danger, festering,
metastasized, a grave condition,
fed by gerrymandered districts,
politicians choosing their voters.
The Insurrection never stopped,
the battle for our country rages;
We cannot be complacent, naive,
believing that all will be right
that comity will be restored
without war, strong action;
Now is the time, the moment,
to stand in the breach, to fight,
for democracy, Martin’s dream,
for the dream of America itself.
