Sterilite Poem by David Beckham

Sterilite

Rating: 3.3


Sterilite, by his own actions, brought war upon his town…

What happened on that fateful day was quite simply astounding
At the footsteps of the courthouse, he pulled out his sword...
Enraged at the court’s decision, he lashed out continuously at a statue

Sterilite, known as a man of fine character had just done the unthinkable
After it dawned on him what his actions implied
He fell to his knees and cried…
“Where is David, where is David, where is David? ”

This is so rich in its subliminal imagery. About justice? King David? Michelangelo? Public symapthy? As always with your work the ripples create more and more meanings Thanks
