"We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing" By Konstantin Josef Jireček, a Czech historian, diplomat and slavist.

My Blood

By Sabbath de Yecouba

Blood which is dark red

Made of humility and self satisfaction

Contented with my belongings

Needs less but has more in it

Calm with a lot of false hearsays about me out there

It is my blood

 

Clean from wastes of cruelty

Free from curse of stolen possessions

Hard to drain for its high viscosity

Thicker ten times than water

Visible on my soft and hairy skin

It is my blood

 

Satisfied with my behavior

My engine which drives me towards truth and justice

Without a trace of chaos but peace

Feasibly a joy to my veins and arteries

Loves my type and loves my haters

It is my blood

 

It knows who claims I am a thief

When stolen possessions make me shiver in coldness

It is aware of the blackmail behind my back

That I am wicked and jealous

It knows the credibility of me and my being

It is my blood

 

Blood causes a manslaughter

It is a wise judge

Judging you with your right and wrong

Because at the end of every tomfoolery

It will ensnare you alone

And everyone will take it in

 

My blood is clean

It hasn’t any bad practice since birth

Neither what belongs to another man

Taken in unlawful means

Nor the hearsay which has torn the world apart

Whatever you may hear them say is not about me and my blood
