Eternity

Born in a leaky roof Chains normatively bangles Where bales’ pay tribute Their fate decided by others Those who think themselves gods Like dogs they penetrated Only to recoil like serpents Swallowing the hunters game He violated their rule And spoke against their doctrines He slept but they were gone Buried he was in our minds To die a man Is to forever live
