Poem Title:
Poem
Not too far removed From penetration fully Roman Mysterious strangers appear In form of a red-plumed omen Clans laughing on the run We are thumbing our noses At laws made for justice And order for the masses Force of the strongest The only law with validation A strange idea from Roman soldiers Some word called obligation Taking whatever we want Ignoring this strange new notion Hunting women for our pleasure Filling them with burning violation Unaware of opposing forces Burning dwellings, smoke is rising Destruction of a village Women silenced except their crying Then confronted by metallic horsemen To assert law and order Our days of pillage are ended Shackled and bound to one another My spirit bound and aching Like sexual frustration And sold to a noble woman To fulfill her inclinations My skin stripped bare Her look of satisfaction The branding iron glowing red The coming mark of civilization Burning flesh in my nose I scream aloud in pain My animal within rebels Against chains that keep me tame Can this be happening to me? She notices my thought I'll make you a gentle slave You were wild, now you're caught Go ahead, attempt escape But no matter where you go You're now marked as a common slave Never again respected in your home I'll tame you with kindness Or the crack of my whip Either way you'll learn respect Now on my feet, put your lips Inevitably we all follow The path of Vercingetorix Submitting to the Roman eagle And hopes of a pleasure fix The least amount of grief Is now called salvation And I taste the bitter sweetness Of my ordained domination We search for exemption To save us from the pain We love ignoring the reality That we'll always be a slave In one way or another Chastisement is our lot And with gratitude I bow To a master smoking hot Time passes by Rules taught again and again Then as certainly as clockwork Society produces another gentleman With adoring eyes on my master My animal corralled into its cage Thankful I now ignore that voice That civilization took away
