Patriot's Revenge

Marching steadfast through the rain

To points ahead as yet unknown,

Knowing only when the trek is finished

Will the point be made,

The enemy confronted and

The final debt be paid

To obliterate and liberate

The high and mighty from their throne.

 

He was but a simple man

Meant to live a simple life,

Wishing harm to no one,

Professing peace, lamenting love,

'Til grave obsession played its hand

Sweeping down from high above

Enslaving those of unlike value,

Saddling their hearts with strife.

 

Now the husk is off the corn;

The closed door taken off the hinge.

The patriot is primed and ready

For his taste of sweet revenge.
