My Four Commandments
MY FOUR COMMANDMENTS
Do not take me away from the battle field
Else you quench my flame in the face of war
Because its when the river rushes in anger over a precipice
That we behold the miracles of the waterfall.
Do not rebuff me of my chances and opportunities
Else you become a clog in the wheel of progress
Because the path which the Buffalo clears to the stream
Same will also be tramped by the smart Antelope.
Do not deny me of my daily night sleep
Else you amputate my exceptional inestimable dreams
Because it is until you kill the dream you can't kill the man.
Do not backstab me or cast a slur on my person
Else you kill a fellow man with the dagger of the mouth
Because when a Jaguar's engine roars with fury
What curses shall one send after it to counter its speed?
