haunting fear, taunting jeer

mobs, sobs, no jobs, conflict, convict, hero, desperado, decisive blow, weeping widow

freeze, seize

arrest, protest

illegal raid, backs flayed, nerves frayed, deals made, bail payed, plans laid, militant parade, police blockade, horses brayed, tear gas sprayed, fairness a charade

into the wild, she was only a child

name trashing, tongue lashing, eyes flashing, teeth gnashing, legs dashing, arms thrashing, head bashing, knives slashing, window smashing, colors clashing

vibrant, strident

bleed, speed

tires screeching, cries beseeching

let us be, take a knee

bombs bursting in air
spread eagle, don’t tread on me
take my breath away
