The Defeat Of Democracy — elroypoet.blog

The future casts a long shadow before it.
The time is coming—
when even our patriots will betray their countrymen.
Because fatigue makes cowards out of all of us,
and cynicism undoubtedly follows.

So who will save our democratic institutions?
Who will ride in, on a white horse
and restrain us from destroying our constitution?
Were you hoping for a miracle,
are you trusting there’s another smooth operator—
waiting in the wings?

Don’t be fooled again,
only counterfeit leaders govern counterfeit states.
