The Leader

In every age of darkness
There emerged a leader
Leading a nation to goodness
But people began to propheteer

With each prophet, they formed a religion
With each prophet, they formed a scripture
With each religion, they formed a legion
With each scripture, they formed a culture

A legion who protected their own
Against a prophet who lead a nation
A culture that suited the season
Against a prophet that stood with progression

A period where religion brought light
To an era of dark battles in the name of religion
With every prophet there came a religion
One last prophet came to erase them all

A prophet not born from miracle
But a leader elected by nation
A leader who placed democracy at pinnacle
The democracy not of any one religion

The leader began his campaign
Not to uplift a cult or nation
But to reach out every family in need
To plant in every house a fruit bearing seed

Each household that formed a village
Every village formed the nation
Up next in agenda were the starving tillage
What if they made it a government position

The leader's small achievable promises
Against large selfish businesses
With the leader an ideology rises
But no matter what leader loses...
