[hometext] => Join me in a trip through history...The Phantom
[bodytext] => The hour of glory is upon us, kicking men in the chest... call me Leonidas Treat the world like the Persian army, take 300 men and decimate a country Let the Gods decide our fate, blood thirsty and posted at the Hot Gates Outnumbered 10-1, the thrust of spears as my enemys arrows black out the sun A king and his loyal captain lead an army of battle tested savages The hour of eternity comes to call, the year 493 the greatest empire will finally fall The Roman Empire was the first of its kind, her rise to power was ahead of her time They crucified Jesus and continued to thrive, over a 1000 years until the last emperor died Started with Augustus and ended with Constantine XI, the power they had made others jealous Treachery and murder, every emperor made the hit list, do you remember me... my name is Brutus The hour of revelation, the king and queen of England acknowledge the birth of a new nation 1776, The United States of America and her Declaration of Independence Leading the Continent Army, victory is destine...my name is George Washington No taxation without representation, taking it too the red coats without hesitation Freedom, the ultimate treasure, the Star Spangled Banner, written in the blood of our ancestors The hour of promise, a nation divided on slavery and the question of solace The Emancipation Proclamation ended slavery but separated a nation Remember the 54th Massachusetts infantry Regiment, 600 African American troops fought to their death Brother versus brother over a million dead, Abraham Lincoln takes one in the head The fall of Appomattox, Robert E. Lee surrenders with no chance to recant, call me...Ulysses S. Grant The hour of devastation, the emergence of the Worlds most powerful nation December 1941 an army of zeros blindside Hawaii killing 3000 American sons The battle of the pacific ensued, operation Vengeance, the target...Admiral Isoroku With the target eliminated the Japanese were upset, when asked to surrender they ignored the request Hiroshima, Nagasaki, over 226,000 dead humans, call me...Harry S. Truman.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
