Benedict Arnold Reborn

High above

in silver blue sky

rumbles the approaching death.

Unbeknownst to those below

living life

loving 

family 

children

husband and wife.

Innocence broken

shattered

incoming piercing scream

impact

cratered hole

body parts strewn

blood

overflowing cisterns

babies scream

left alone

orphaned

for what?

Call to arms you did

inciting

taunting…..

so proud to disregard

so proud to abuse

misuse

power

for to whom shall you answer?

You sanctify terrorism

your mouth moves one way

words coming go the other

there is no truth to you

there is no humanity

reprehensible actions

provoked by…..

Volatile vitriol spewed

greatness is not forthcoming…..

Fall to your knees 

beg for forgiveness.

The Ninth Circle of Hell

home to treachery and traitors

considered too tame for a beast such as ye….

A Tenth Circle to be built

to house a man 

who tore apart the world

to sate his desire for the Almighty…..

Dollar.

Corruption.

Adulation.

Destruction.

The list goes on

and on

and on.

Detailed

page after page

of immorality

hatred

racism

ineptitude

there is no end

to the torment begun

brought forth

left behind.

Your legacy

naught but a single sentence in the annals of history……

A narcissist who destroyed centuries of history in 4 years.
