A beautiful motivational and inspiring piece of poetry, well conceived and nicely penned in persuasive poetic expressions with artistic brilliance. A powerful work of art.
Lovely lines that describe the strength of a Cause amid a even more stronger defeat... Just an iota of difference but with a larger meaning.... I think the victory of the defeat depends on how strong the cause is..
What a frightening and fierce thing a Cause can be. In some religious senses, it is a good thing. In other religious senses, it can be the opposite and strive against spirituality. A cause in any sphere of activity- political, medical, philosophical, business- can be ghastly because people come to believe in the rightness of the cause that they fail to examine it and keep on examining it. Uh, returning to this poem, it is well done and spirited but I still hear the distant hoofbeats of doom.
Short, insightful and very powerful poem...
