It Can Happen
The pumped up pulse
of a million squealing simpaticos
becomes the hum of a voracious
swarming organism
the mob has evolved
more righteous
with each devolving quiver of timidity
more arrogant
with each stomp of quaking jack-a-dandy boots
Beware! This IS Terror!
and the mob growls:
"respect no boundaries
no borderlines
no quarantines
no authority
no order
no sense
nothing"
be aware of this
be scared of this
within, or without
beware "The Mob"
BEWARE
