Best Politicalmarch Poems
One thousand dead businessmen
Zombies of emotionless regimen
Sharply dressed
Black suit and tie, freshly pressed
Leather briefcases, to seem professional
This march of skeletons is quite exceptional
DECAY
Burst into dust and wither away
Corruption and greed let them die
The next thousand corpse march includes you and I
within this march
amassed
hands rise outstretched
they're granted
insignificance as they touch.
within this march
tribes are juxtaposed
delicate bodies dispersed,
cast abroad
under an infinite sky.
within this march
their many tamed, somnolent beasts
lie in limp dead circles
disarranged, and softly sleeping
amid droves of
lingering, nameless hosts.
within this march
ominous gods
have drugged
following legions
with simulacra of
perfection.
within this march
emboldened and vain
is an outcry
of a strange storm,
a maelstrom of form
a violent tempest of
disintegration against
manifestation.
within this march
sovereign lords
believe all things change
and still remain perfect.
Written by my husband Thielus.
