Nick Trim Poet Rhyme

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

(take a pill if you feel guilty) - A powerful and great writing, Nick :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Nick Trim June 12, 2019 at 7:41 PM 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
