Checkmate! Poem by Joe Rosochacki

Checkmate!

Rating: 2.8


Is the call of freedom encompassing the Mediterranean Sea?
First Tunisia then Egypt possibly Algeria,
Where it ends I don't know,
But -the social networks have made history.
The kingdoms of Syria, Saudi Arabia, are anxious to see,
What will be the repercussions be beside hysteria,
Will they have to give up their throne of power?
Not a year ago, this notion was then inconceivable to me.
But then again, this whole world, it's changing as if on lightening speed,
As fast as electrons flow, the amperes, the voltage that electrified the masses,
In their time of need
And the ohms to resist democratic rule could not deny the joules of the people made by their works.
Is it going the global bank decline, where dominoes cascade down to the abyss?
Or could it be a form of Illuminati that gave rise the American and French revolutions?
Tell that to English King George V or to French Kings XIV, XV, and XVI,
Who abandoned some, if not all of their wares
Kings are Kings, the chess board has sixty-four squares,
The nations are different, the language is different,
but the rules are the same.
It's NOT like playing Mr. Spock a chess game in 3-D.
I wonder if the Emirs could last,
The clock is ticking, Their time should be up,
We shall see.
No freedom can be a gift from an earthly ruler
But freedom is universal concept granted from God HIMSELF.
