Friend Of The Tyrant, A Poem By Oraye St. Franklyn [LISTEN]

Must read

[dropcap]T[/dropcap]o him of whom the Tyrant’s rage
Is music from a stage

To him of whom the utility of evil
Is but a defining necessary tool

To him of whom the cries of affliction
Are a pleasurable sing-song not of attrition

To him of whom the fangs of death advancing
Are but brickbats and baits edifying

To him whose pleasure
Is the Tyrant’s measure

A day comes
The defying day of scorns
The day of scorching retribution
Of seeds sown and harvests’ affliction
When the Tyrant’s might and bite and height
Pale by pail in crates of heightened hate
That smack the snags that slack the slingshot

Boom
Doom
Gloom
Not bloom.

When that day comes…

[AUDIO] FRIEND OF THE TYRANT
