Fighting Man

Fighting Man

A Poem by astoundinglyattractive

O, Fighting Man
O, Righteous Man;
Do you do the things you say you can?
Do you keep the promises that you make?
Do you fulfill the vows you take?

O, Fighting Man
O, Thunder Man;
Why is your blade still in your hand?
Why is your knife not in it’s sheath?
Do you not reap from victory?

O, Fighting Man,
O, Lying Man;
Do you know just who I am?
Do you know where it is you stand?
Do you hear the interment band?
Do guards stand vigil while you sleep?
Do you see where this road leads?

Do you know that you are weak?
That you twist the truth when you speak,
And that you are unfit to lead?
That you are not the god you think?

Are those men behind you, or are they sheep?
