Plunging into the darkness:

Anarchy reigns

Streets raging engulfed in flames

Blame not placed at any race

Colour blind but an ugly snarling face

For many, everything lost

Money alone, cannot cover the cost

Stores and homes it did not matter

As only rioter’s feet outside clatter

Glass shattering all around

Just a terrifying sound

Police tried

Only luck held that no one died

Oh London we feel your pain

All that is left is the blackened stain

Blood will flow

More fires will grow

The creeping menace of anarchy

Something that should not be free

    Let’s hope it calms down soon

    Sorry that I say this here, but I cannot help myself – I was snoring (at least I think so) this night so strong that I was bleeding out of my nose in the morning :(
