Winds in the East #MondayBlogs

When the die has been cast
and the world catches up
the shift moves to rapid pace
in an impending goosestep
the winds in the East
push to wipe the slate clean
of every dissent and blemish
to create the blank canvas
the art is erased, history rewritten
human voices silenced in the middle of a song
but power rises to the surface
richer than any cream
and an ancient voice sends out the call
readying us for the battle to come – Caroline A. Slee
