The Insurgence
By Robert Stephen Herrick
Stealthy strides construct a demise
for those unwary in their travels
as simple things may be lost
amidst the troubled tides,
within the upheaval crossed
from dangerous alibies.
When the insurgence comes,
take heed to do what is right
as things will proceed as
to their accordance leads
so that when a treasure is gone
find hope to replace such items
piece by piece as then
new value will amass again.
As stormy seas and winds
arouse conflict and strife,
feel the need for a different
course to set yourself upon
whether the insurgence grows
or whether it falls short.
