Wrath and righteousness
whose strength begat
This age old fury that none would forget
Primordial thunder, cleaving stone
like lightening on the mountain of the psyche
I have descended from the mount, and from the oracle
No longer blinded by the tempests flash
But gained the scar that told of the fall
And the wisdom to prove it.
And now ascended on this fire
Which has burned its symbol upon my mind
To hate is human, to war and love is divine.
All I claim, how deserving, the noble.
All I claim, is mine alone. All I claim is MINE.
If only might to take it.
Neither law but law becomes me
The last argument of kings
What becomes of men but the ambitions that make them.
From the fire in the belly.
From the mettle in their spirit.
Something greater than the sum of its parts.
Or goes to pieces in the ebb and tide of circumstance
Separating dross, from iron and gold.
The blast furnace of fortune and human will.
To become something more.
