nice little poem

the great ordeals they signed and sealed
from those lines of prose our country rose
the meanings we have since neglected
all the politicians we have elected
barbarian kings we have resurrected
oily fingers grip rusty swords
black mist blinds the hordes
pay we homage to these frightful lords?
