Crucifixion's Universal Anecdote

A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto


Crucifixion's Universal Anecdote

 

 

egomaniacs run amok

up on the hill

the king plays

while the jesters weep

and the crown rusts

from lack of trust

and fears turned tears

Reality is sinking in for millions here and world-wide; I can feel lots of buyer's remorse. The world is in turmoil indeed.
Baboons rule the jungle with their lion, bafoons rule here with their orange hair leader. He wants to do anything to take credit for it and make himself great. Masks are coming off.
You write with truth and conviction.
