Poem

They hunted down Arthur and bound him in ropes
and dragged him in front of the stranger
Poor Arthur was saddened and lost all his hopes
in the face of the hate and the danger

The stranger then urged them to build a great fire
right there in the middle of town
Their frenzy increased as the flames grew yet higher
and sweet Arthur could only look down

Then out of the crowd came one of their own,
the blind man that Arthur would read for
As he came forward, they saw he wasn't alone
and was followed by more than a score

All the town's children had gathered around
and they followed him now to the fore
They walked towards Arthur with nary a sound
and surrounded the friend they adored

The blind man then spoke in a calm and clear voice
to the crowd that had now fallen hushed
He told them they were faced with a terrible choice;
it was one that couldn't be rushed

He reminded them Arthur had a heart filled with love
that they'd all felt his kindness and good
And the book said all creatures were sent from above
and should be treated as one wished they would

The man dressed in black raised the book in the air
and stood up in front of the crowd
He silenced their voices with only a stare
and spoke in a voice deep and loud

'Who is this imposter, this man who now speaks?
It's clear that he's sightless, his eyes  do not look
He can't see the horns and the hooves on the freak
and how can he claim to know what's in the book?'
