256 (04.04.2015)

I don't really enjoy the play Macbeth,
With all that horror and those golden words
The shadows and the thrusting ways of death
The evil omen, squawking raven birds.
The lady's power that bends a husband's will
The questions that arise from all those things
The simple man's ability to kill
The injustice of greed and wealth and kings.
Oh Shakespeare the most harrowing of bards
Who knows both sides of arguments within
And knows just how to deal his sacred cards
To balance all mankind in hope and sin.
And then says things such as "...stars hide your fires...
Let not light see my black and deep desires."
