Apr 2021
into a coma the western
democracies did slip
and in this deep sleep state
they'd lost their grip

all awareness of any threat
which was posed
had been expunged from
their minds as they reposed

warning sirens were blasting
a message so loud of din
communism has landed at your doors
wanting to force its way in
  
too late for none heard
the wake up call
they'd been in an endless
stupor's  thrall
