Oh You Are the Blessing That Knows All

You come across humble but I don’t buy it a martyr? unlikely I suppose voice opinions turns fights to riots Why my way do you oppose Hear the martyr speak Preaching preaching This way that way a poet must be Teaching teaching through poetry a perfect vision found in ideology A divine message for you and me Their perfect way they’re perfect aye friction friction in those they oppose the way the problems arose Martyr martyr knows more than all Martyr martyr so wonderful Martyr martyr oh so humble Martyr martyr riot starter Martyr martyr be politer Martyr martyr bigot bigot Martyr martyr stop being a pillock preacher preacher bigot bigot look a bit deeper you will find it not a martyr narrow minded Martyr Martyr problem starter, avoid the violence preach in silence

- Martyr is one who suffers from death for his faith; also someone who thinks they are innocent ... always think they are right ... there are a lot of them ... (take a pill if you feel guilty) - A powerful and great writing, Nick :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

it's a rather humourous ironic title I admit, as it appears to me but how else do you tell a martyr? your is your way, it's the best for you, be liberal and accepting or be bigot? how do you call someone a bigot without appearing one, it's simple, i'm not saying do it my way, i'm just saying open up, you appear limited
