faces of grief

broken engines of belief

iniquity in stark relief

red rabble of mendacity

grim bailiffs wait like minarets

while sister fends a mounting threat

in crucible of hypocrisy

faces of grief

rage is a key

pain is a thief

faces of grief

rage is a key

pain is a thief

amidst darkness let us vow to insure her light will be remembered

radicalized evangelicals

awash in primate chemicals

bare shiny fangs for all to see

obeisance to a maniac

the slavering lackeys stay on track

in this democracy's darkest hour

faces of grief

rage is a key

pain is a thief

faces of grief

rage is a key

pain is a thief

amidst darkness let us vow to insure her light will be remembered
