An eerie creeping of a new day
Our sun scratching and clawing across the landscape
Hope’s previous promise of possibility
Replaced with dread and terror
What will the monsters serve the starving today
Will they ever notice
They are eating each other
While we the awakened wreathe our sanity
With the wisdom of those who came before
Those who so nobly fought these battles
And won
For them we endeavor to win the War
