POPULARITY OF FEW THOUSAND YEARS
Poet Chan Mongol
December 7 of 2019
Hammurabi, the king proved very well that he was there;
Same did 2 thousand years ago, king Asok and king Alexander.
That, Socrates was a very literate and knew grammar;
But on the other hand, illiterate prophets been most popular!
Who favored prophets and their establishments?
Who sprayed on them perfumes and nicer scents?
They got strong ties with pharaohs and royal families;
In built up relations among succeeding rulers of dynasties.
Killers of Mohammad's family promoted his religion;
Almost 15 hundred years he is with the ruling administration.
Romans ordered to crucify the lord Jesus,
Rulers repented later and penetrated Jesus in us.
Buddha was a prince who was supported by other rulers;
He was sponsored by King Asok and by Asok's successors.
Strong and long lasting backups promoted each prophet,
No question was being asked if a prophet was illiterate!
Goods become brands when accepted by famous people,
To be accepted depends on mega buyers not in any miracle!
It is not what you know but it is who you know;
In the field of literacy, prophets had nothing to do.
Prophets were nurtured and upheld by following governments;
Thus, governments have been engineering public sentiments.
To be worshiped and likable in most surrounding houses
Literate or illiterate folks needed sponsorship since old days!
Actually, rulers been using fools, mute nature and figures as icons;
In national flags, in books, in administrations and in religions!
I still want to find out what kind of magic prophets knew,
To be in our minds in few thousand years what did they do?
