Anarchy
Back to the state of nature
Lawlessness rules the day
Self preservation, a must for man
The survival of the fittest.
The search for basic needs
Impulsively driven without restraint.
Misery and terror unleashed
A war of man against man.
The purpose of the state
Has failed gloriously.
Aristotle weeps in solitude
Saint Aquinas intercede.
The nature of trust is broken
Revolution is inevitable
Locke's vaticination fufiling
We simply keep watch and pray.
Queen Shalom Ebere Anthony
