Emblematic Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Demonstrative and dramatic.
The symbolic image given,
To power and its status.
And the concept of it had,
As to who represents this.
In posing pretentiousness.
Imposing...
Impressive imitations.
With it done to achieve,
A maintaining of beliefs.
Kept to worship,
Delusions fictioned.
And a way of life that thrives,
On idols and heroic creations!
Leaving many prepared,
To replace and eliminate truth.
With delusions fictioned.
Fading.
Away from a reality blazing.
As it rises upon the horizon!
