The Ballad of Marshall Awe
Marshall was born to humble folk
mixed and outcast from his friends
no one listened when he spoke
he daydreamed daily, means and ends
Marshall vowed one day to rule
and never to be looked down upon again
he worked into the finest schools
and formulated his ruling plan
there’d be none of this or none of that
once he had taken charge
trifles he would substitute for math
and only his cronies living large
he had devices and eyes in the sky
and massaged the media with his charm
of course the people never knew why
his system brought them only harm
but perplexed and maybe lulled to sleep
by TV, smartphones and the internet
people forgot every promise Marshall didn’t keep
and spiraled into slavery’s debt
prophets, poets, writers and such
had desperately tried to warn the masses
did their efforts result in much?
Marshall vowed to never free their asses
