Angst at Dawn

It’s the uncertainty that weighs

On our hearts and souls these days

The hollow echoes of sad voices

Faced with scary nightmare choices.

 

A distant rumbling as mass hordes

Make moves south as time affords;

Disruption as supplies run short …

Has history no lessons taught?

 

Meanwhile, the God Angst reigns supreme;

We pray that this is a bad dream

But will brave diplomats prevail?

Thoughts of peace crawl, like a snail …
