Blaze

July 23, 2018

The once peaceful world

Performs a forced kneel

As the venomous ego

Slaps the legless on the heel

Once a towering boom boy

Letting nothing subtract his count

The mayor of morality’s steed

Signals for him to mount

A turnover has been turned real

Only one can reform the shape

Of the wicked pythoness

Who longs for a civilization to rape

Once a heaven for hell haters

Containing life and its chow

The solid become spirits, and they

Waste time wondering how

All done with rotten purpose

All conducted for the epitome of greed

A betrayed brain, the forgotten rain

Gets attention by the worst of its feed

Pleasurable life becomes an unshatterable knife

Of dreams becoming ever so false

Which will embrace the tempting face

And dance the imperfect waltz

The chosen one stands up with the mind

Vocal chords orchestrate an unforgettable swear

Promise to shrink and turn back the big and bad

And restore the world destined to share

The world watches the hero wannabe

As it waves it a possible goodbye

For the individual will maybe restore hope

But likely the glory will somehow die

Hardships fire like sun dogs

Along the tar inspired horizon

Both orange rods of hope either vanish speedily

Or fade bit by bit as a hero turned wizen

The destination finally turns up from space

The hero magnetizes the stars for reach

Traps enter their permanent wheelchair

Their spiritual gun foreclosing its breech

The major of the malicious march

Recalls no opportunity to prevent self demise

Although moral always lacks an im, it will always

Defeat its poisonous counterpart with ease

A blaze of hope melts away the ice

That froze the overheating lovers of peace

A blaze sent by the sun to burn the coal that polluted

The inopportunity for integrity to cease
