Comeback

Is your comeback a symbol of faith or vengeance Let it be clear if to light or darkness you pay allegiance Don't make men victims of ploys up your sleeves Meting out on them wrath as thieves Suffering for invested trust Reaping from it the dividend of disgust To whom much is given, much is required Even that which is sought, solicited and acquired For the fulfilling of desire comes with position Propositions, dispositions clamouring for your decision And the old stream of a mind must be stretched To a lake from which nourishment is fetched Ask yourself why some lead and others follow Is it the bait of the lender on those who borrow? Is it charisma, wit, oration and charm Is it the strength to which weakness submits to avert harm Is it a fixed ordination of a bloodline from the beginning Is it learnable of its intent, design and meaning Think of God who is continually believed and defied Yet all life and breath have on him always relied Patient that they'll freely yield to Him without force Ye must fashion your ways after this high course For ye take a heavier cross than most men consider So let the highest of character surpass the highest bidder K. Muitherero.
