Watcher

44th president

I watch and pray

Just like Jesus say

Watch and behold

Like he beheld

Satan like lightning fall from heaven

Barack means blessed

Obama means slightly bent

Slightly alter his name and see

Barak means lightning

I watch and pray

He comes in peaceably

Who comes in peaceably?

I watch and pray

 

A minister of hope

For all eyes to see

I'm blessed to see the day

Martin Luther King Jr's dream

Manifested on Barack's day

I watch and pray

 

Gives me a dream of hope

America won't eat it's young

Rise among an obscure history

And from a cursed dream

Redeem the African brood

Of my ancestors

Congratulations black man!

I watch and pray

 

Good relations to white rulers

Measures of all men

Treasures of hope

Hope this dream is not

A nightmare

I watch and pray

Hope you rule with love and faith

Not with underhanded fear

Nearing the end of time

The final sands of time will stir

Down and now we get that trickle down

I watch and pray

 

Hope, Faith, Charity

The greatest of these being Charity

That came from one source

His blood cries the ground

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr

Jesus King of Kings

Lord of Lords

President of Presidents

I loved the ideas that were thrown out in this poem. God, I hope this dream isn't a nigthmare either. The last thing we need is another president to f**k our country up a little more. Nice write =)
