Once the shell of civility was shattered
by stealth forces embedded in our history
events began to spin out of control rapidly
as we were now descending without brakes
Panicked prisoners were we
Victims to the accelerations of gravity
The architects vainly tried to deflect fault
of this tragedy they were now powerless to halt
but their creative rationalizations fell flat
in the raucous court of public disinformation
For fear was now the new currency
and the bill was coming due soon
From the depths of this dark anarchy
arose a demagogue with quick solutions
Hoisted high by the desperate mob
their newly anointed mad man
proceeded to systematically
dismantle the institutions
ignorantly blamed for our fall
Students of history
who warned this would not end well
were rounded up and labeled
enemies of the people
The war on rationality
would inflict numerous casualties
and in the end this mass stupidity
would bury our ignorant asses
