Chameleion's Bitter Reveal

by Odin odin@aflx.com — Read all 3,869 poems by Odin odin@aflx.com

- Some would say: “I’m sorry, but…”. Not me. The underbelly of “wannabe” governance in America is at an all time low. Pick your Red Cap politician who at this point fears a continuance and his own shadow, let alone the shadow evil himself, the reincarnation of a multi-headed demagogue monster from the past… with the mane of a mangy WWE sweaty thug up against the ropes wishing he could float like a butterfly sting like a bee. Let us hope the SDNY lets him sting (himself) like a bee and cease to exist. (Painting by Zenja Gammer)

Chameleon’s Bitter Reveal

 

At once the magician

The power of anything out of the hat

Beckoning broadcast

Sanguine evil power to watch

 

For just as fear freezes

So too thaws the past

Upon deaf ears

History replays

Ancient truths

No amount of hiding

Can contain

 

Believing he is without rival

Confident of the buttons

White

Black

Pulsating

Red

 

How rose this kind

This uncontained dark embodiment

This rule by madness

Designing mass murder

Foreshadowing Hollywood versions

Political rants of hawkish lean

Even

Dictators yet to come

 

We watched

We cringed

But we…

 

While destinies of Peoples

Being roiled by storms of passion

Reigning upon their innocence

Awaited twisted cravings

That never cooled

Knew not the warmth of sun

Only the ice of all that is dead

 

With words like hammer blows

Gates protecting the hearts of people

Splinter

Fracture

Fall

 

For lest we forget

 

Centuries bury

But also resurrect

Endlessly revealing

For some

Cyclic misfortune

Dismay

Hopelessness

 

Yes

 

His history died

But might he be back

Haunting the global mirror

An insanity ever reflective

 

Seeing himself

As once Hitler

Now an evil

Forever Chameleon
