"Avenge over Infamy"
Been heard throughout months and years,
Through countless tales of deceit;
Of actions enough to call terror,
Outweighing its own feat;
It expressed words like change and hope,
Enough to gain people trust;
Only to see the pictures,
Of anger if not lust;
The prosperity benefited the few,
Contrary to statements saidth "benefit the many";
It did tried to knit the country with roads and bridges,
While some brought bloodied trails with fallen innocents and mistaken identities;
Such truths no wonder why most dare to oppose,
In a time "all live in infamy".
Intoxicated with power and fame,
And demanded over and over again;
From the time he entered the palace with his retinues,
Mostly from the past, a refuse;
His innermost thoughts increasingly contrary,
To those of his people whom against tyranny;
Now they realise they see blood,
And in his soul bereft of an ideal;
Behold the man! Is he worth the pioneer?
The cherisher of ideal? The fulfiller of hope?
For he, intoxicated with power, what more of ambition,
Whilst hands soiled by blood, and mind of intrigue;
His retinues repeating their praises and his feats,
Trying to sneer ears and to live in folly and desolation.
With all the truths no wonder there are those who oppose,
And continue to assert what is ideal;
That ideal rooted from the truth, a continuity of a tradition,
Whose servants whose lasting landmarks, now rotting, a place of misfits,
If not took by storm by the awakened, trying to counter cruelty by protest;
The truth hath shown by blood, if not the poverty,
Enough to bring the people to the square rising against tyranny;
They hath enough of heartaches and sorrows,
That outweighs the numerous feats of markets, bridges, and roads;
Expect the court jesters trying to sneer them if not the attack dogs,
To be unleashed by the drunkard tyrant from its cages;
But still cannot hinder the fervor nor extinguish its flames,
As some if not all amongst the concerned taking the deed like offerings,
Willing to sacrifice in the altar whose god's name: freedom.
