Season of the Reckoning

 

 

Everything’s off rhyme

stuck in syncopated time

 

this season of the reckoning

is echoing the sickening,

sanity’s trembling is worsening

 

adrenalin is assembling

both sides told they’re trespassing

but disenchanting is awakening.

 

Threatening editing slides by

some who are unquestioning,

but to me it is unsettling.

 

Deadening, deafening lies are enveloping

our lives, but we just keep on messaging

while what they’re peddling feels like sentencing.

 

We’ve gotten used to crazy menacing

but like a loaf of bread with leavening

we’ll rise up to not feel second string.

 

His skeleton of embezzling

hypnotizing but we’re awakening

 

adding strength to what’s developing

together we’ll soon be reveling.
