BONE –WEAPONS
The anger of a whole generation
frozen in my bruised bones,
slogan-weary, action I want.
With my bones I forge weapons
to continue the fight
for the wretched of the earth.
Despite a choking in my throat,
not content till I wipe every stain
from the face of the earth.
I wake up in a new dawn,
join the historic march
to overthrow tyrants and empires.
Hail freedom’s birth;
herald for everyone,
O ye, bard for the crestfallen.

Thought-provoking. I've tossed around a few ideas for why they are "crestfallen" but not sure which to settle on. Give a hint plz? |
