Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man
Won all their hearts with
his ingenious plan,
To take the power of the
few,
To remove status and order
anew,
To restore riches to the
destitute,
To ensure each man equally
renew
Disregarded principles of his
clan,
Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man.
Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man
With a bellowing voice and
outstretched hand,
Gave clever pamphlets by
the ream,
Arguing merits of his
scheme.
With citizens enraptured
in his dream,
The public held in great
esteem
He, who upon a noble platform
ran,
Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man.
Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man
Was the next steward elect
of the land,
Enforcing each promise
with tender might,
Changing the lax laws nearly
overnight,
Gone were each voter’s public
plights
As dissipating clouds in
airy flight,
Their praises abundant as
grains of sand,
Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man.
Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man
Ruled in office a lengthy
span,
But the citizens’ plights
again returned
In other forms, with solutions
unlearned,
And their frothy minds continued
to churn.
His savior portrayal they came
to spurn,
“For who was in charge
when the plights began?”
—Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man.
Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man
Addressing the scrutiny of
his clan:
“From self-review I have
not shied,
A moral compass I have not
denied,
From past shackles this
country I untied
I will keep my judgment until
I die.”
Murdered by millions of misguided hands:
Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man
Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man
Was made a martyr for his
values grand.
From gloried tomes of
philosophy sound,
His words like a fruitful
harvest abound.
His body was planted in fertile
ground,
Within the soil of a humble
mound,
A seed upon which a gray tombstone
stands,
Hamilton the Revolution’ry
Man.
