The Lying Demon is making conversions.
In mass rallies he baptizes his followers in hatred.
“I am your retribution,” he declares.
He is preparing for his reign of terror.
He shouts his manufactured myths, and they believe.
They have yielded their minds
To the evil emanations in the East.

In the East, the venomous enemy drives
murderous armies against our border.
On our border, assaulted people 
fight and die for freedom. 

They are the ancient torch of freedom. 
Today they are the front line for the West.
Behind them, the West rouses itself, slowly, 
to feeble half-measures.
The West fears the fight ahead.

In the Land of the Free,
Anarchy overwhelms reason.
The zombies mouth words
without meaning or understanding.
It’s a conspiracy of confusion.

The Capitol has been overrun.
Traitors cower before the zombies.
They, too, will be converted.
The conscience of freedom shrinks.
