Description
They came by the thousands
packed into sinking boats
like tin soldiers, adamant and unwavering,
as they sailed towards the promised land.
They took no Gods with them.
Where they were going, none were needed.
They went towards a land of glorious disbelief,
of shining opportunity,
where the measure of a man was determined
not by birth nor marriage nor luck
but by the sweat on his brow.
And so, they sailed,
leaving their giants to clutch desperately from the shores,
bringing only their dreams with them.
They would bow to no emperor now,
worship no god-king,
offer no sacrifices to any idol
save for themselves.
This was a land that needed
neither demons nor angels,
no gods nor kings,
but only man.
