“The Shogunate”

 
“The Shogunate”
 
cji
6/25/13
 
Forcing the storm clouds
Preparing multiple shrouds;
 
Demanding – thundering
Commanding – plundering;
 
Maiming, murdering, raping
Destroying, depleting, shaping;
 
Reaping the sown off-springs
Shrilling off-key he sings;
 
Desolation and depression
Dictatorial and oppression;
 
Never pausing for a breath
Breathing out instant death;
 
Comes quickly the Shogunate
Spreading malice and awful hate;
 
Quickly hurrying the winds past
Nothing of worth/value to last;
 
Commanding – plundering
Demanding – thundering;
 
Rapidly creating pure famine
Creating homeless gamin;
 
Roaring and screaming oaths
Stunting all forms of growths;
 
Leaving nakedness and chill
Compelling all to do his will;
 
Minions obeying blindly dying
Millions in the streets crying;
 
Restlessly thirsting for power
Growing stronger ever hour;
 
Comes quickly the Shogunate
Spreading malice and awful hate;
 
Quickly hurrying the winds past
Nothing of worth/value to last;
 
Demanding – thundering
Commanding – plundering;
 
Tumbling governments whole
Giving chaos its due in full;
 
Forcing the storm clouds
Filling the multiple shrouds!
