Blind Men Follow

Some leaders do not lead
They simply make decisions
Then stand in the back
As the rabble carries out the mission
The rabble does not question
For fear of leader's wild indiscretion
And his ability to crush them
With another snap decision
So they follow blindly
Not in faith, but in fear
Questioning only each other
In their degree of allegiance to leader

More Coming, I promise

It has been a long, long time since I posted any new material, but I've been working on lots of things. There are a few new poems in the works and an entirely new venture that I'll hopefully launch a little later in the year.

In the meantime, look at this adorable cat...i mean, come on...




Pawn

A queen is born a queen,
A king a king,
But it is the pawn,
Cast out to no-man's land
To protect,
To sacrifice,
So others may live.

It is the pawn,
Drudged through war,
Come out the other side,
Anything it wants.
Come out revered the most,
As should be.
Come out crowned royalty.
