DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL POEM
Jericho
They lined up making promises
to build the walls to protect Jericho,
And the ruler will sit in the secluded tower
and throw down edicts upon the people,
And amber waves of grain-
once safely cultivated-
will burn across the land.
And the one who occupies the tower
from above
will rumble, then stumble
and fall,
the echo sounding along
the walls that will crumble and tumble
and fall to match the plummet.
