not a celebration

on order are the markers of good time
these are not ordinary ephemeral things
all peace and order celebrate in rhyme

we are now cleansed of dirt and grime
someone may see the fluttering of wings
on order are the markers of good time

nothing will now rise up from the slime
heroes today do not come armed with slings
all peace and order celebrate in rhyme

this is honest action for there is no crime
to answer and justice always flings
on order are the markers of good time

the bell of justice cannot ever chime
while our last hero chants and sings
all peace and order celebrate in rhyme

so in the end we are well past the prime
we've long ago let slip the leading strings
on order are the markers of good time
all peace and order celebrate in rhyme

(C)2007, Fragano Ledgister
