Five years ago today, we watched,
In horror,
on TV,
As insurrectionists
attacked
Our
once-democracy.
We couldn’t
really comprehend
The havoc we
were seeing,
As worldwide
outrage hit the waves,
Most normal
folk agreeing.
The government
held hostage,
While the
president stood by
For many
drawn-out hours,
Which was
covered with a lie.
And all
those brought to justice
Sadly pardoned
and released,
Our
Constitution, once revered,
Now
tattered, stained and creased.
I thought we’d
seen the worst of things,
But that was
just the start
For we
couldn’t know just how our country
Would be
torn apart.
