The Rising

Where there is smoke, there is fire

There is a fire we all can see

I see it blazing in a White House

I hope it will not touch me

I’m not quite sure where it’s going

I see it consuming this place

The higher the flames keep blowing

They give up on winning the race

I see with my eyes a Likho

Its hair is as bright as the sun

He’s setting the fire and I know

He’s doing this mischief for fun

You deviant creatures of lies

Full of impudence and deceit

Where are your minions and spies

They ran when they felt the heat

Now we are left without protection

As you take our safety and run

There isn’t the slightest detection

That you are the treacherous one

Is this the creature that’s rising

The one coming from the East

You know the one they’re hiding

We all know him as the BEAST!

Thanks for stopping by, and I look forward to you joining me for upcoming articles. As always, happy reading, and take care of yourself.
