NaPoWriMo 2013 #14 – Persona Poem

MAYBE THERE’S TIME

I’m strong and I’m able. I’m ready to go
to the earth, from this planet, I’m ready to show
to those beings, those “humans”, just what they don’t know.
I know they won’t like it. It will be a big blow.
But, I’m strong and I’m able and I’m ready to go!

On my way I salute the sun.
“Can’t stop”, I declare, “I must run!”
Sun nods as she stays in her place.
“I know”, she calls, waving her rays.

Then, as I quickly swoop by Moon,
I bow to him quickly, it’s noon!
Not a word does he say back to me.
He’s been touched, been defaced, I see.

I hurry right on through these beings trash.
“I’ll cope with you later”, I say as I pass.
I duck as the beings shoot their first dart
I know that this thing will be more “junk art”.

As I land I’m appalled at the sight!
It’s going to take time to make right.
They’ve ruined it all, see the blight?
Then Earth says, “I’m too tired to fight,
You’ve arrived just in time with your curative might”.

And, I’m strong and I’m able and ready to go!
My name is Salvation and soon it will show.
I point toward a city and I strike my first blow!
I’m strong and I’m able and I’m ready to go!
