Yesterday's News

by Romeo Naces   Oct 17, 2011


At the peak of his power and fame,
they trembled at the sound of his name,

like scared cats sneaking
past a huge dog sleeping.

They kowtowed before him without shame.

Now he's down, not much of any use.
He's history, to them that's obvious.

Openly mocking,
cruelly taunting,

they treat him now like yesterday's news!

    I really like the title to be honest and I think it's eye-catching. I have to agree with the comments above because I think this is very well written and your words convey a really powerful message that will be stuck in my head for some time, which is quite good actually. Well done
