Epigraph
Joshua leads his men around the walls of Jericho once everyday for seven days accompanied by his priests, and the Ark of the Covenant. Joshua commanded his people and spoke, empowered by the LORD's will..
"Ye shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, yet shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; Then shall ye shout."
When the seventh day arrived the ram horns sounded off in triumph.
The walls fell
Joshua 6:1-27
The Will of a Man
For who is to say that a man cannot achieve his goals?
For he who is only bold and never to abide to the status quo
A man must persevere or succumb to being thrown off his throne
As foretold, he will neither stand on the mountains tops, nor obtain riches and gold
“Lend a hand to the man who is overcome with disparity and false hope”
However, no hand was extended, the man is left to determine life on his own
He is never shown which road is right as all is untold
Baring a sword and shield, he takes to the light and prepares to fight
But behold! There in the mist, a deadly, dire dragon hinders the man’s path
Its scales shine, its wings wavering, and its breath a fiery wrath
The man stands stoic, “move or be slain dragon for it will be a bloodbath”
It is then the dragon retracts its neck, opens its mouth, and unleashes hell in one breath
The man dodges fast as to not be burn by the dragon’s magical cast
Not overcome with thoughts of fear in his mind
The man triumphantly thrusts his sword into the dragon’s heart, piercing its thick scaly hide
The dragon bitterly befalls to the man’s will and dies at his side
Humbled, the man continues on his path, but with a liberating stride.
