The Don

Posted by pinda on July 18, 2009 - 15:01

He is statuesque.
A presence,
That nobody can ignore.
Omnipresence.
Can't define his presence.
He is not everywhere.
But everywhere is him.
Wears an esembled suit.
Hell and Heaven ignores his sin.
All his made men give a salute.
A man once powerful.
Is now dominant.
Blackhand, extortion.
Hurting others.
Contortion?
It's his way.
It's his weapon.
Son and underboss.
Named Juan.
Yet forever.
Vito will be the don

Tried a poem, probably lots of mistakes in language I've used. Point them out please. Thank you.

Hi Pin.

Good piece mate. :-)

Can only spot one possible error. Do you mean :
"Wears an ensembled suit"?

Didn't know what blackhand was - do now - thanks ;-)

Thanks for the comment Jupiter, emm I mean like a collection suit e.g. a set, not sure if what word I would use??

Ensemble is French for 'together' and I think it also means 'collection' so I guess

"Wears an ensembled suit"

would work for you. ;-)
