A man was walking through the desert
When he spied a stone.
A piller half sunk in the sand,
A monolith alone.
With just his hands he freed the thing
From its sandy grave.
He raised it on his shoulder
As did once some long dead slave.
He took it to his house that night,
And that's where he did see
A paragraph of writing carved, a bit of history.
He scrutinized the letters to
Find out what all they said.
After some time, all was solved
And this is what it read:

This small pillar, first in quarry,
First in cutting, first in place,
Is carved with this inscription to
Let one and all know, just in case
They don't that this is my grand fortress,
My grand palace, My grand hall.
I am the great god Mayeeshah,
King of kings and lord of all.
My warriors number many more
That all the countless grains of sand.
We have good clean water here,
And no hunger in this land.
My sword is sharp, as is my mind.
I've never lost a war.
I am the great god Mayeeshah
Whom you must bow before.

"Hmmph. Some god." The man thought
Who dragged the pillar home.
"He once was lord of all he knew,
And all that's left is stone."

I Like to call this,

Ode to how cool zophia is.

Oh Zophia your so super coolio
I am amazed by your armatar
So green and.....green it still amazes me

Zophia The Great! now charging into battle
Spam proof weapon and shield in hand
Spammers now running all across the land
Hiding in every nook and cranny
But no, This does not stop Zophia the great

Now she charges into the spam castle
Spam left and right, So Zophia begins to fight late into the night
Zophia finally reaches the spam leaders throne
With her many skills left to hone
She states one thing, I AM QUEEN!

As Zophia walks into the night
Crickets chirping, owls on the hunt
She wipes her forehead and says
All In a Day's work, and disappears into the distance.

I know it really sucks lol, poetry isn't my thing but I just had to post.
