beware: dead endgame ahead

in this fell administration

chess is played with pawns as queens

with the sacking of our nation

rife with thieving wayward means

and pretension grift and lying

has the press repressed and boxed in

with recriminations flying

and the ticking of the toxin

..

we need action free of static

to ensure such chaos quelling

but the bomb’s on automatic

and the good fight isn’t gelling

all the well-forged fine alliance

has been twisted all awry

absent decency’s compliance

we may curdle up and die
