Pauper prophet stands amid nobility's raucious crowd. Beckoned forth, mocked for faith, punishingly proud. Beams are set, noose is hung, gallant dress is donned. The noble man, on pedestal, is smugly looking on. Trumpets hasten allotted time; judgement,error-free. Noble man; mortal witness, of the paupers' eternity.

The Noble Pauper
Pauper prophet stands amid nobility's raucious crowd. Beckoned forth, mocked for faith, punishingly proud. Beams are set, noose is hung, gallant dress is donned. The noble man, on pedestal, is smugly looking on. Trumpets hasten allotted time; judgement,error-free. Noble man; mortal witness, of the paupers' eternity.
