And The Legions Came Poem by Michael Pruchnicki

And The Legions Came

Rating: 2.8


They will come

massed in ranks
battalions and regiments
young men and women enlisted
in a good cause
led by a bespoke
charismatic charlatan
preaching eloquently
about something or other
we can all believe in

for those unpatriotic citizens
who resist the clamorous crowds
camps for re-education will spring up
like weeds in a vacant lot
