Magic Wand Of Power

Magic Wand Of Power

The laughing bullets zing into my flesh
and weave the sorrow of the universe
into the fabric of theology
how we worship the magic wand of power.

The wizard stands alone on windy plain
to face the warrior with the shining sword,
who conquers the world by slashing off heads,
and raises high the magic wand of power.

The warrior with the shining sword of power
laughs at the wizard on the windy plain
who holds small metal tube aimed at his head
and lights the fuse on magic wand of power.

"I defeated thousands with slashing blades,"
declares the warrior with the shining sword,
"and your little metal tube scares me not,"
then fire flashes from magic wand of power.

The silver ball propelled by blasting powder
zings whistling through the clear astonished air
and splatters the brains of the conquering king
who falls, killed by the magic wand of power.

Ten thousand warriors with sharp shining swords
who danced elegant grace of martial arts
are shot down by bullets from metal tubes,
blasted swift from the magic wand of power.

So wizards with the tube of blasting fire
destroyed arrogant kings with shining swords,
defeating tyranny of lust and greed
with bullets from the magic wand of power.

For seven hundred years now gangs of men
who wield long metal tubes of blasting fire
fight world wars for supremacy of Earth,
shooting bullets from magic wand of power.

The soil of our spinning world is soaked red
with blood of a hundred trillion dead people
heaped in high mountains of their laughing skulls,
all slaughtered by the magic wand of power.

The first god who rose to fight against evil
wielded the scepter with the diamond eye
by smashing the skulls of tyrants and thieves
to rule before the magic wand of power.

The first king who rose to fight against evil
wielded the sword with the long blade honed sharp
by chopping off heads of rapists and slavers
to rule before the magic wand of power.

The wizard who rose to fight against evil
wielded the gun with the powder of fire
by shooting the hearts of rebels and kings
to rule now with the magic wand of power.

We sailed across the stormy sea of hope
and swarmed across land of America,
shooting people who lived in paradise
to claim Eden with magic wand of power.

Cowboys and gangsters shoot each other down
in endless civil war of cops and robbers,
police commissioned to protect the people,
enforcing laws with magic wand of power.

Young angry boys, bullied or spurned by love,
enraged they cannot control girls they want,
shoot innocent people in fierce rampage,
destroying lives with magic wand of power.

We march for our lives to protest the gun
that angry men shoot to terrorize us,
demanding restrictions and background checks.
on who can wield the magic wand of power.
