Golden Fleece

Susie Gharib

When did blood become subordinate to oil
at the coronation of monarchs and kings?
I pause to wonder at what is written!
And banished to a monastery
with his hair shorn of its magical gifts,
what only belongs to a Merovingian priest,
an heir is robbed of his heritage.

What have our authorized scribes excised
from our falsified history?
I can hardly now believe a single incident
for books are written by those who have the support
of muscular feats
and political intrigues.

And this golden fleece,
that millions seek,
does not belong to a magical sheep.
It is the shorn head of a monarch of peace.
