War of words

There's a war coming&;#8230;
Like a game of chess with peoples hearts. The stench of evil is upon
us. It creeps closer every day. It takes many shapes and forms.
Arguments lead to sides being formed. Backhanded underground shadow
tactics. Loyalties aren't always black and white. Sometimes the text
becomes smudged. Alliances are created. Strange bedfellows and all
that. Who can you trust? Who do you keep by your side that you know
won't turn round and garrote you in the back. Twisting and turning the
blade. Forcing it deeper and deeper into your spine. Paralyzing you.
What leads someone to such twisted bitterness that they turn on you? To
throw away all the friendship that you shared. Can people be bought
with lies, propaganda and fancy promises? How long do you sit back and
take the backstabbing and the lies? How long before you are forced to
turn upon someone you once trusted with your life? Sometimes the
divisions are easy to see.
Deeper and deeper it goes. Spiraling out of control. People are drawn
in. Innocent bystanders forced to choose between loved ones. More lies
are spread. Chinese whispers are the weapon of choice. A recruitment
drive for nothing more than the sake of popularity. Trying to turn
everyone to your way of thinking. Petty minded attention seeking
builds. It's snowballed too far. This wasn't what you intended. This
wasn't your aim at the beginning. Yet it's happened. And it's too late
to back out now. You've made your bed and now you have to lie in it
irrelevant of the tragic consequences.
People get blamed for the state of the situation. Natural leaders can
be seen miles off. Not everyone wants this. Not everyone will get
involved openly. However not everyone will sit back and take the
torrent of abuse.
Oh yes people, the lines have been drawn. It's not over yet.
There's a war coming&;#8230;. and only those prepared shall
survive.
