Summary:
The marches

they’ve adopted hate
as the answer,
excluding patience

they’ve assigned
vile language
as their position

the drums of war
ornament speeches
with scornful accents

and so they’ll march;
they’ll refute
the enemy

they’ll intercept
and reimburse
with unyielding blame

the lines are drawn;
we’ve been here before.
think the 60’s

think Kent state
and the violation
of innocent lives

the raven
omen of ill fortune is
there on a nearby limb

the fuse is set,
the wick is burning,
an explosion’s on the way
