TANKA
beneath the surface
of extreme arrogance lies
a deranged nut case
causing death and destruction
to satisfy his ego
how can this happen
they should teach history in schools
they've been here before
wreaking havoc and mayhem
weak men cowards with issues
you cannot make it happen
the bible says so
you're in for a big surprise
no way out even for you
So true! Great poem, Rall!

'how can this happen?' - the question so many of us are asking. Your tankas capture it all so well, Rall.
ReplyDeleteSo true. Great take, Rall.
ReplyDeleteI hear you Rall 💞
ReplyDeleteRall, the line “weak men cowards with issues” really lands for me—it feels blunt but honest. I really like how you move from anger to calling it out directly at the end.
