Scoop Poem: The Age Of Nefarious

The Age Of Nefarious


Dedicated to Major William Hendon, USA. KIA 11-6-66.

When George W is in the White House,
And Ashcroft aligns with the vicious!
Then paranoia will guide the courts,
And hate will steer the malicious!
This is the dawning of the Age of Nefarious!
The Age of Nefarious!
Precarious.
So precarious!

Accord and toleration,
Disappear throughout the nation?
Fair judicial decisions?
Scales of justice become inquisitions?
Secret wrongful deliberations,
And personal liberties exterminations?
Precarious.
So precarious?
