FOURTH CORNER-STONE.


FORCED WILL CHOSEN

Acknowledging my honour and sweetest high-lineage,
I stop smoothing over my well-deserved nuisance:

Scoffing at the revolting; useless to this world,
remaining in solved questions and hardened riddles.

Agreeing with truisms and people’s will,
when that fully and gratuitously has been attended.

Stabbing dead meaningless opinions!
Axing down bumptious pretences!
Leaving sense against wicked deeds!

Gather thoughtful goods:

Know that Truth, Honour and the Rights of Might,
don’t serve our foes as weaponry
as all here now is owned by Viet.

Reasons for an honourable Life is Life’s claim:

Remember that rich owns the Light:
Caring for Life’s Goodness;
path to insight and dearest life value.

Truth is our sufficient property.

Sameen The PoetBay support member heart!
The ending line kind of both summarizes and epitomizes the whole poem. I really love this.
