Eyes Upon the Parade ( c ) Glen Mitton2021
A common ceremonial procession
That no one was in possession
A succession for anyone and all
One of many festivals in the Fall
It's nice , that a city can still " fudge it "
While working within their budget
Surely nothing to , " grab your goat "
Just some marching tunes banners and floats
A traffic detour that was " Announced "
So argumentative headaches could be " bounced "
" I'm sure I am safe to say "
" This idiot went out of his way "
Unlike the " Grince " , the devil is real
And this " action " does appeal
He fevers in these festive times
It's easy for him to enter minds
As easy as say , " A mapped out parade route " !
He just whispers , no need to shout
Instantly this idiot became a " minion "
This of course is my own opinion
This person made the choice himself
To enter the world where evil dwells
No hesitation behind the wheel
He alone controlled his " heel "
With no imagination using , " the mortal's crucible "
The devil hits below the belt , as usual
He has conjured yet another neighbor
To do his bidding in his favor
An enemy with no distinctive face
A human being of any race
Any participant in this " soft Parade "
Brainwashed into thinking , it's all a charade
This is nothing avant-garde
The devil relies on his " drawing cards "
A conscience mind willing to let go
His and only his , eternal soul
In " whoville " we know who we are
People made stronger by another scar
We can make the devil powerless
By starving him of souls to ingest
We must disregard and seek the glory
The USUAL ending to this sort of story
By continuing with the " Business of Living "
By honoring the fallen and by forgiving
Fear is the devil's final component
That's why this idiot couldn't face his opponent
How do I function ? , " wink wink nudge nudge "
The next " grand marshal " will be his judge
