Armed With Quill

By Lucky Stephen Onyah

#Armed_With_Quill

If I had joined the special forces
I will be in possession of fire arm
Taking part in military operations
Engage perceived foes in combat
Dethroning kings, overrun nations

If I had turned a sly political figure
I will be schooled in shady dealings
Campaigning for or vying for offices
Making promise I don't intend to fulfill
Assure ailing masses of a life that isn't

If I had pursued the path of priesthood
I will lend voice to man's true spirituality 
Inspire men to seek The Only True God 
Upholding virtue, eschewing life's vice
Not mingling The Faith with politicking

If I eventually attain great wealth/riches
I will do great deeds as a philanthropist 
Sending aids to troubled areas/peoples
Strive to make our world the better off
Ensuring people/eco friendly ventures

Yet I wounded up as a daring philopoet
Armed with quill that bleeds with Grace
Voluntarily poor but gifted with thoughts
A lover of humanity and all that instructs
Waging holy  war against mental slavery
