A Satire Poem by Joshua Adeyemi

A Satire
(Inspired by all Bible Books)

At the GENESIS of their freedom,
MATTHEW met with MARK, LUKE and JOHN.
For the course of their EXODUS,
Their ACTS must be in NUMBERS thus:
The DEUTERONOMY of the ROMANS,
First and second CORINTHIANS and GALATIANS.
Highlighted that JOSHUA Mitchel
And other JUDGES, RUTH and Anabel.
Met with the two SAMUELS (The Earls) ,
And the two kings bout the CHRONICLES of life's spell.
After the bread of wisdom fed
Them by the Literal quotient of the Earls.
In succession, they elected two captains:
EZRA and NEHEMIAH against
The EPHESIANS, PHILIPPIANS, COLOSSIANS,
And the first and second THESSALONIANS:
Who'd merged with their fiends.
But disguising to them as friends.
ESTHER and, JOB, her father was sent
As spy to the twin princes of Athens:
The two distinctive TIMOTHY.
For they were the fountain of the Apathy.
These spies were sent with enticing
PSALMS, and arousing PROVERBS and tricks.
Surely they got there as ECCLESIASTES,
But TITUS and PHILEMON the offspring
Of whom they would spy fell in
Love with the Maiden and promised
To offer them whatever they would demand,
Even at the edge of betraying their land:
I remembered a SONG OF SOLOMON that said
Out of love " O that his left hand were under my head".
At this, that spies succeeded in their acts,
And mended their hearts to sooth their arts.
When they returned home, They
Recalled their tidings as per say.
Then the captains summoned their soldiers-
The HEBREWS: ISAIAH, JEREMIAH -
Who did exhausting LAMENTATION,
When the colonial masters afflicted their nation.
And JAMES, the two PETERS, the
Three JOHNS, JUDE and the
Valiant EZEKIEL, DANIEL, HOSEA,
JOEL, AMOS, OBADIAH, JONAH, MICAH,
NAHUM, HABAKKUK and ZEPHANIAH -
Dividing them in pairs per desire.
Their national agility was then stirred:
As their nation leaders bade them:
These are devoted Tercet, HAGGAI,
ZACHARIAH of division A and MALACHI.
Then they invaded those heart-on-fire
Cities, throwing sword in desire.
Upon their victory, A REVELATION
Was given to their nation
By the king of Athens, Bashan,
Who was chopped from fingers to arm.
He said to the desirous captains:
"Your nation is free now to be bound by pain.
For thy teeth is not strong for meat,
But yet you refuse to take our milk.
