The Mighty Have To Fall Poem by Mark Heathcote

Purges are needed in a forest:
The strongest have to fall and combust.
In order for the weakest the poorest
To grow - regenerate their lushness

We need a whole new subsistence:
A grass blade a head of green corn
Good footing in the sunlight's clearance.
The world isn't made up of one 'Acorn'.

Purges are needed in a forest:
The mighty have to fall and crash!
'Burn and sacrifice' the strong the plumpest.
The best growth is made out of potash.

Strangle like the forest-fig, let chaos
Rule! As they did, but know, that the sun
Shall shine that they'll lose their pathos?
And we'll renew our own fortune!

Purges are needed in a forest:
To make capital gains: We must digest
Their corruption, topple the unjust
Who, anoint to rule over us?
