Invictum Poem by Hannington Mumo

Against wild dogma and feathery wit,
Shall your sound idioms and wisdom
Outshine fickle folios of mortal sages;
Proving verity in its irrepressible form.

Your arresting dictums shall outshine
Obtuse hallowed tomes devoid of life,
Which erudition's minions kissing die;
Sepulchered beneath self-spun strife.

Each revivifying line a failsafe dose,
Curing the unquestioning pupil soul;
Which heeding its fathomless force,
Glowing dims deified sky-high stars.

Those fibs-shaming adages of yore
Shall diffuse war's menacing nukes,
Neutering gory ciphers spelling awe;
Turning brawls into inviolable peace.
