Poet: Ken Jordan Poem: Dark Moon Edited by: Sparkle Jordan written: February/2014 There's a dark moon rising over the Stars and Strips..... An ugly wicked dark moon; It want go away - When you think that the most heinous slaughter of human life, in American history has long been forgotten think again. It peeks through the iniquity of minacious clouds,to reveal the unthinkable genocide, that took place on American soil - An ugly wicked dark moon - bleeding behind the shadows of senseless, yet countless shed's of blood on the grounds of America - It was the worst holocaust known to mankind - Still to this day, it stands alone as the most catastrophic loss of human life in World History - Even more than all of the wars ever fought, and life lost in battle - This was an atrocity,lead by Christopher Columbus, who called himself, "Admiral Of The Ocean Sea." In 1492, He set sail on his maiden voyage from Spain,in the Santa Maria, He eventually came upon the Americas, where the indigenous people called Taino, ruled the land - But in 1493, on his second voyage to the Americas, It marked the beginning of the end for the Taino people - Columbus,and his men set out to exterminate all of the Indigenous people - creating the worst holocaust ever known throughout the world - When the massacre ended, 100 million Taino Native American's, lay dying in the dirt of their homeland - Columbus, had conquered his goal as the only man left standing on American soil - There's a dark moon rising over the Stars and Strips, and it won’t go away - An ugly wicked dark moon - Copyright (c)., 2014 Ken Jordan
