Best Empire Poems

War is a time of great conflict 
bringing so much misery and suffering 
to a generation of people mistreated
on their knees in it's wake 
prayers are calling to Heaven 

Where the innocence of children 
becomes tainted 
no longer having a voice 
little ones confused
scratching behind...

(These are 2 etheree I put together to form a double etheree.
They were inspired by the marvelous
documentary movie "March of the Penguins.")

In the Empire of the Ice:
“The Plunge” & “When Childhood Ends”

They poke small heads out from underbellies;
feeling chill, retreat; and shivering,
remain a while longer...

Fury unleashed
By an Enlightened soul.
Future unfolded,
But she's not a fool.
Twilight has come,
And the passage is true:
What comes with the day,
In the night remains too.
She prays 'tis a dream;
She hopes to soon wake.
If not to be so,
May her dawn never break.
Screaming and pleading,
Her most humblest desires;
Her...

Sing this song of immortality 
This rhythm of life lived in neuro fire
Feel the tone of deep oscillations
Taste the song on tongues divided!

The rise of empire 
The building of the divine 
The godhood of man at the base of creation 
Crucified on crosses of iron,...

My Empire of Ashes

Who am I without my dark throne?
I am the King of this crumbling castle, alone.
The ruler of this empire of ashes.
A child with an empty box of matches.
A King with a madness profound, 
Everything that I have loved, I’ve burnt to the...

I hold my breathe, 
and pray for death.

To escape this prison I've descended into.

I slowly suffocate,
  in the darkest place.
I've fallen from grace,
  without a trace.

My wings are torn.
My skin is worn.

Never will I escape this hellish space,
  or my cursed fate.

My...

The Fall of the Onomatopoeian Empire

By Elton Camp

Onomatopoeia is a literary device
Appeal to the senses is quite nice

The comics often show us how
By using biff and bang and pow

The telephone loudly does ring
The cash register goes ca-ching

Mary’s heels clacked on the floor
Cook clanged the pans...

The power of its empire’s influence once shook history from its feet
the number one world olive oil producer;
the home to the world’s largest tomato fight
and sits at the top in organ donation.

A country with a wordless national hymn
housing a  cloud-kissing building with no automated...

Collapsed so they say long ago
due to Cleopatra’s long nose
that pierced a General’s heart
got him stuck there in love
till the army was demolished
what terrible accident in history!

Every man, every women
big, small, learned or never
empires, kingdoms, nations
a Cleopatra with long nose
will appear from no where
to intercept...

RED SUN DAWNING OVER THE NEW EMPIRE
The dawning sun raises bloody red
Over the traffic clogged streets
And noxious polluted air 
Of the capital of Imperial America

The sun with its bloody red glare
Reminds me of all the people who died
This last year in Emperor's Bush's Three Wars

We...

Of all the things I learned in School
Empire was the thing that most touched me
At first I was seduced by stories being told
Of how great the British empire used to be .

Then I started reading, Doing my research
Pretty soon my feelings began to change
To rule...

Leaking sides of a filth I abandoned

Sheathing myself to my fortress garrisoned

Waste snaking through what's left of my good will

On and off I rode away from the wasteland off the distant hill

 

Encountering the ghosts of the past whispers

Devouring my thoughts my head dazed in...

Oh! A mighty empire that was built 
Beneath thé shield of the sun,
Thé empire that glows of victory,
Home of great mortals that dined with glory.

Oh! The empire that marching of it warriors,
Makes the soul of it foes tremble,
Losing their confidence for war makes them humble,
For...

Fall of a country.
Gripped by the hands of evil.
Known to all of man....
