dark poetry – The Tigress Awakens

The Purge

I want to burn it all
The filth. The scum.
The self absorbed.
The haughty. The vain.
The rich. The sin.

Hope has given way to reality
Peace has given way to war
Bounty has given way to dearth
Dry has given way to rain

The sky is cold winter
Wyoming wind wailing
Nestled in the purple
Choking vacuum of forever

Inflation rising
Debt market ballooning
Misinformation proliferating
Covid at a fever pitch.
