UNRAVELS



A racist raises no hurry or need for tempers soothed
Prefer dwelling in fast regression amongst hate without facts, to not seek truth
The fascist so fast to resist any that may bring victory to all races
Fears reflected horrors as mirror houses hideously refracted images to face less
A despot with an ego consisting of microscopic values
Becomes macroscopic in might outgrowing all rules
Now this warmonger's tirades are born from petty inadequacies
Knowing only an unwanted craft that trades in atrocities
Lay claim to 'The One Above All', procured by missionary positions
Religious yet preys on those ranked 'lower' by societal conditions
A prejudgment in prejudice, a mere gambol that appears bright only to an ignorant ally
Yet dread a just foe with vision is all that is needed to see their glare fade and die
