Lordless Poems | Examples


The Peril

You are all vehement and gutsy
Putting across even the wrong forcefully 
With vulgarity drawing a bow or curtsy
From a righteous man smeared shamefully 

You care not for truth but to win
Teasing an argument to tear down whoever dares
With heads coining every justification for sin
To wear out the fervency of any man who cares

That’s how the world is under the evil one’s sway
A lordless codeless lot living for pleasure 
Taking license of way and stray
And their wildest wishes are their treasure 

They squander their prime
It is theirs to spend as they please
So long as the sin is not a crime 
Their deadened conscience allows with ease

How many wishes have we heard from the frail
And how many regrets on the deathbeds
What does the realization of failure entail 
That the end now unravels the soul’s dreads

Yet the cycle continues in the midst of counsel
Ye be wise that you descendants may live
Sit and reason only in a Godly council
And Godliness shall be all you take and give 

K. Muitherero.
