Sword: The All-Purpose
Instrument.
War it creates and
prosecutes,
justice it safeguard,
judgment it renders,
anger it generates,
pride, honor, and power
are traits of its owner.
Wealth it creates,
fear it instills into
heart of
mankind,
penetrating power of
intellect it represents,
phallic it connotes,
its abode-the sheath-
represents the yonic.
Sun or no sun
brilliantly-it shines-
rain or no rain,
always immaculate;
long its two-edged-sharp-
metal blade,
strong its
hilt-hand-guard,
which makes thrust or
push-and-pull movements
possible.
Sword-every mortal fears,
because of power it wields,
aggression its second
name,
but courage and strength
identified qualities;
its ability to act has no
limit,
and uncommon leadership
it has given son of man.
Blood it loves whenever
strapped on men,
blood it sucks anytime
mounted on a horse,
wailing and cry it leaves
behind anytime it goes out
in
war.
Pain and anguish
gifts sword gives to victims,
un-healed wound with
eternal scar,
indelible mark sword
leaves behind for
generation-after-
generation to remember.
Sword when will you
change your aggressive
personality to embrace
peace?
Will you someday say
good-bye
to war and turn a
peaceful tool?
When will your presence
translate to something
better
than war?
Will the day ever come-
when coded-communication
about you will mean dove?
Mankind awaits the time
you drop letter “S”
to become “word”;
Humanity awaits the time
your name takes a reverse
form to become “drows” or
drowsy;
when you will become
somnolent, sleepy, dozy,
at that time-mankind shall-
be free from your rage,
wrath,
and petulance.
Every time umbrage shall be
effaced from mind and
daily life,
everyday annoyance and
bile be banished into
sea of forgetfulness.
Sword, humanity looks
forward to the day,
when SWORD becomes
Safety Without Oppression
Restraint and
Destructive Intent.
