Martin Mathius Poem
The emptiness and unhappiness so closely related
Left her with a hole bigger than Kimberley.
No man dug fortune, only misconception and silence.
Her predecessors left her no gold to kick the dust off.
They only left deprivation and separation
she had children who truly loved her they all have abandoned her.
They all scattered in homes of different notions.
Some lost the native tongue
Some sought for knowledge a cure for the depression
The rest seek and extol gold day and night.
The breadwinners are ineffectual and fragile.
The ground has dried like the corn they desperately after.
Some harvest in ties while others eat with scavengers.
vultures camouflage themselves, the sun is bright outside.
Sheep's have hidden fangs that appear sometimes.
She was once a pillar of nations
A driving force, with a tale that was longer than Danyang–Kunshan Grand.
Tale became shorter due to sickness.

Martin Mathius Poem
hopes you hoped for hopped off quickly than imagined.
Surely those who caught your hopes were never caught with an egg on their faces. Your hopes emboldened them to prosperity, not one was caught with embezzlement. You who are not shaken by earthly things look for the right purpose where there's no superstition.
You found love where there was no love
You captivated a mysterious prince who seems to love the world more than you. Countless tribulations you endured with him none of that enervated you strength. He never saw his wrongdoing 'cause his doings were beautified by a supernatural world we call earth.
Two or three people believe you are their pillar of strength. You sometimes doubt it, that a pillar could be a broken heart like yours. None of it that is swaying lefty will superannuate but we will learn to laugh together when things turn rights again. Don't doubt you existence when it that is unknown does not speak.
