The Mage

It sounds like you had the valor. Are you a hero or a traitor? Your tale comes down like mythic, while Victor paints his own epic. Your passing is a mystery in the pages of fading history, like a bleeding tale of glory tamed with rage and fury. Your legend was born like when Lenin blew the horn; The poor peasants mourn; A mighty empire was torn. But the blood of rage was engraved in every page; At the right time it may spill; May the righteous halt the kill. May the blades of destiny tame the course of history so the rage and the fury will bow down to grace and glory. *In memory of a famous political figure in the history of my country* Superhero or Supervillain Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Robert James Liguori
