Centaur Poem by Chandra sekharan

Like a powerful centaur
He galloped from Macedonia
Conquered
Persia, Egypt, Greece, Babylon
And North of India
Annexed and expanded his empire
Majestically returned to Macedonia
En route he massacred millions
And became great conqueror
Before he could reach his home land
All captured countries
Were declared independence
By his supporters and enemies
He died of stroke at tender age
Today his descendants
Are begging in streets
Old kingdoms are perishing
New empires are flourishing
They also would follow their predecessors
Pages of history are full of
Wars, battles and mutinies
Temporary treaties
With hidden intention of back stabbing and toppling
Blood thirsty centaurs are galloping

Crushing and killing millions
