Changing The Immutable Poem by Jeffrey T. Bender

Changing The Immutable



Behold the vision that I tell
And recall the day that Tower fell.
An angry mob took arms that day
And attacked the place where power lay,
the Tower, where nine men held sway.
Unjustly they had ruled the land
Now their judgement was at hand.
Each day another pled his case
Yet the counsel never dared lose face
For each day their answer remained the same
'Depart here! Go to the land that has no name! '
'Walk that cursèd lost man's trail, '
'For from this land you no longer hail! '
One by one their numbers fell
'Til came the ringing of the bell.
A man of high honor was being tried
And, suspected of treason, was exiled.
Long had he helped create the plans
Now he wasn't there to make a stand.
Taking it on themselves in anger
They put their lives in great danger.
An angry mob took arms that day
And attacked that place where power lay
The Tower, where nine men held sway.
Up and up the flames crawled high
Up into the clear green sky
Thus toppled the Tower with a glorius cry.
