Bloodless Coup

Taking charge by force chills

down to the bone

Visibly futile and strangely pitiful

Transfer of the hulking yoke and

grievances unclosed

Hands the batons on to take

free swings just because

Really? Just because?

Taking charge by force with

free licence to lunge

Snarl and take a potshot

- feels good

You've toppled the order

but are now the same enforcer

Scaling new heights of severity

just because

Snap decision to snap into

Amplify what's been done to you

Such a rush - righting wrongs

This is not right from wrong

Wildly, sporadically righting wrongs

This is not right from wrong

Paving ways without force

Pull the punch before it floors

the unwitting pawn

With all we can muster

- divide and conquer

Recognise it and reverse

the zeal all because

Succession after succession

to fall right into

Regenerated to suit the few

You sprang when pushed

Now no right or wrong

Fabricated rights and wrongs

Because vengeance is

no kind of leveller

Bloodless coup

Ultimately save

the strikes for the structure

Bloodless coup
