The Return Of The Repressed Poem by DM W

The Return Of The Repressed



Fascist forces are on the rise again
In ultra modern, 'civilised' Europe.
Spurious democracy's been abandoned.
Hear the hackneyed blood & soil narratives;
The clenching of fists & the flying of flags.
Now the abject has reared its ugly head;
Amidst the planned, pristine conformity.
Could this have stirred the dark beast to action?
Nietzsche prophesied the future's heartache.
And I'm sure Sigmund Freud would have ruminated
About its wild, horrifying occurrence,
If he were still alive today. It seems
The return of the repressed is here.
O I have seen the writing on the wall!
