GOOD MEN AND TRUE

 

This ancient art

and feral craft aligned

deeds the wish that dams the silver stream

and turns the torrent into stagnant pools.

 

- and who shall seek

- and who shall find

 

those shallow prints of padding feet

whose owner instigates divide and rule.

 

the blind are left to lead the blind

the lame can only sit and wait

 

while men who claim that noble birth

gives them the right to guard the gate.

 

- no one may pass

- no one may stay

 

unless they hold the dark blue token

and their lineage is deemed unbroken
