Produce a hero; a hero is needed
Produce a knight to court as stand
One with value more than silver's worth
I want to write an epic poem
Something with a hero defined
Taking on the gates of irons; Illuminati of stupidity
Battling through obstacles drawn
Mansions, castles, skyscrapers tuxedo
Dressed decorated in uniforms suit
Neatly ironed with medals
Cuff-links a' tie for oppression of the common people
Tittles and prestige to intimidate with bluff
That serves to warn, to weaken, oppositions
They stand unopposed, on open parks gather
They stand blustering with audacity
For oppositions lost their tooth, and essence to fight
Rushing to stock; hording on self preservation
To save their skins, cowards are they, that joined the orgy
But I want to write an epic poem for a hero
Put blemish and cuts on the hero defined
Who went against, and stood against self preservation
Stood to fight the establishments candy
Charity of a spirit held, like Joan of Arc or Anna Hazare
To be victorious against the status qua
The needy stand at the tilting edge of oblivion nearing
Darkened shadows of deserted island, liberty cries
Stranded with stones to call out on S.O.S for rescue
I want to write an epic poem
To give the stranded and modern enslaved a hero of hope
And to stop lady liberty's sorrow so deep
She holds her hands up to hide her face
Obstructing her beauty that fades with unjust
For into her hands are tears she cries
So I want to write an epic poem
To produce a hero, a hero of valor, a hero is needed
For lady liberty is filled with sorrow
And earth is held to ransom
Being extorted and threatened
With black mail and corruption
Produce a knight to court as stand

ReplyDeleteAnd you have written it, and so wonderfully. "The needy stands at the tilting edge of oblivion" - wow. And your closing lines are perfect. I love this.
ReplyDeleteLove the lady liberty line. We do need a hero.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great epic poem and Lady Liberty should never be filled with sorrow. I guess the Lady does need a hero with valor to save her.
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing in this weeks Theme Thursday. I hope you have fun with next weeks new theme.
God bless.
