CATACLYSM

Based on The Syrian Crisis. Excerpt I. 



Descending upon the violent prone land
protests of mass release
Peaceful testimony and brutal violence
He refused to stop encroachment
scraped out meaningful reforms
 
Torture that was excruciatingly painful
Laceration and merciless detention
civilians languished in agonizing discomfort
subjected to the shabiha
 
Unparliamentary deployment of artillery
He denied responsibilities
Terrorists and armed groups were disparaged
Humanitarian access abnegated
Curtailment of basic needs
 
Exiled civilians became defenseless
Soldiers attacked and civilians handcuffed
Goverment must collapse
Conflict that became sectarian
Shabiha accused of war crimes
anti-government groups teared apart
reports sugarcoat the government's dereliction



Violent upheaval causing destruction 
devastating wings of misery 
grunt in despair, shout in infuriation 
Cataclysm, Cataclysm, Cataclysm
