Truth Behind Truth Poem by David H Blanchett Jr

This is the account of me and my expirience. For in my series of inconcievable events this sole one brought me to that state of intellectual nirvana, and quickly transformed me into an ever jubulant person.For when this happened me and my bretheren, which were known as 'The Council' were on a quest, as you would say. A life long journey that cost many of my bretherens lives. But still we searched, ever vigulant for the one that would either bring us salvation for us all...or the destruction of our abominated lives. We searched for the one that Legend calls....

Thy Brothers Keeper

Because what is Thy Brother's Keeper consist of?
Is it this specimen that we supposively call a man,
Who lurks around with its feeble stand?

It said it could walk
And it said it could run
But from observance...its more like a caveman
Trying to evolve into a civilized bum

And he stands here before us
This man, warrior, dreamer
The Council awestruck glare at eachother and exclaim
'Is this Thy Brother's Keeper?

How could it be
Its a missconception
I mean, by God!
Look at his awedishous complection

His clothes are tattered
He looks empty and drained
Is it to say that
Our search was in vain? '

His gaze drove upon us
Eyes far from kind
Then his voice filled the great hall
Top, bottom, front, behind

'Hear me now!
And hear me you better!
Before i beat yalls butts
very much redder

Who are you to judge me
What I am and not
Cause you, sir, are no God
Just a broken flower pot

You stand up for what, man?
Be true to your believes
Try helpin' the people
Instead of giving anguish and grief

And I know what I look like
I do not regret
For great deeds I have done
That I will never forget

But I ask of you now
And this statement might be deeper
Be loyal to yourself brother
If you wish to protect Thy Brother's Keeper'

It was hard to say anything
We were filled with much hurt
His feelings spread and awe
Like a discharge of fireworks

But still....in that Great Hall
His words rung like Liberty Bell
'Brother's Keeper. Brother's Keeper'
I can still hear it well..
