Its just a piece of cloth
Artist: mangacrack
Fandom: The Silmarillion
Characters: allusions to the Sons of Feanor
Rating: PG-13
Notes: Inspired by the poem ‘Flag’ from John Agard.
What’s that fluttering in a breeze?
Its just a piece of cloth
that brings a nation to its knees.
What’s that unfurling from a pole?
It’s just a piece of cloth
that makes the guts of men grow bold.
What’s that rising over a tent?
It’s just a piece of cloth
that dares the coward to relent.
What’s that flying across a field?
It’s just a piece of cloth
that will outlive the blood you bleed.
How can I possess such a cloth?
Just ask for a flag my friend.
Then bind your conscience to the end.
