Dementors … 2209-2k12



(prophets of doom and gloom) ..200 poems mark

In tangled wires and mangled steel
We eke our kicks and life's feel

Sanity and reason burn at the stake
Dispatching demons to hell's gate?

The brawny adder lies in wait
Flicking tongue dementor's* sate

Raging fires rule our hate
Past the pangs of an empty plate

Anger and ire now mix with fire
Slogans and spells of events dire

If I wouldn't own it burn it down
damn the mutterings of our clown

Far far away Rushmore* gleams
A flotilla across an ocean steams

Torching others holiest things
Only helps a bad name brings

We haven't learnt our lesson yet
To burn our midnight's oil to get

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The unholy activity of far out loonies has Muslims out in numbers, all over the globe. It is too sensitive an issue with Muslims to pass it bye.
But the sponsored reactions have often been mostly self destructive and played into the hands of those very loonies. Contemplation and organized sensible discourse is the way forward.
