Facing Fear

The distant fire seems to be more lethal 

Flames within have fallen silent in a bizarre twist

Of fate that was overturned by the faulty mirror

Up in smokes, the ideologies that were opposed

Illustrious absurdities and incendiary dialogues

Common apathies while trying to suppress

The rage that spreads through nonsensically

All the words act as catalysts, there’s no doubt

From the nameless one with fierce faces

Stolen common sense have been pushed further

To face the ignominy of flaring foolishness
