a country on fire

a country is
on fire,
who set the
pyre?
.
cacophony
from the
trichotomy is
now higher,
.
a country for
hire, ere it
sinks in the
mire,
.
a country is
on fire,
none to put
out the fire,
.
doom is nigher,
yet, trabadours
thrumming
the lyre,
.
a country is
on fire, nations
playing satire
in clowns' attire,
.
pandemonium
raped an empire,
she's plunged in
a quagmire,
.
a country is on
fire, the flame
is consuming
the watch tower.
