rioters in the Capitol - v2

 rioters in the Capitol - v2

Rioters in the Capitol

marchers on The Ellipse

guardsmen in the halls of Congress,

how did we come to this?

Hope for this moment

for peace and tranquility

in the transfer of power

the inauguration this week.

I pray there is safety

that no one would be harmed,

that we would be one people,

one nation under God.
