The agitators

there was a return to glory in progress ,
these radicals and leftists were standing in the way
resisting the bold vision of the leader,
hating everything it stood for

they were all traitors

the occupiers didn’t feel safe anymore,
everywhere they turned there were agitators
blowing their whistles, shouting at them,
demanding decency, demanding they leave

more men and guns would arrive soon

someone had to protect them from peaceful protestors
keeping them safe from the people’s words
