The rack that speaks of
Glorious Past in the royal halls
vowed to celibacy, the trustworthy guards,
The replacement to the king's neglect
The only solace to the extremely desperate.
The Ethiopian of great authority
Under the Candace Queen
Receiving the gospel from Philip,
baptized
went his way rejoicing.
The only time history speaks of his joy.
Ashpenaz
in the courts of the King of Babylon
watched over the blemishless children of Judah
countenance glowing with divine conviction
flourished with knowledge and skill
blessed in all learning and wisdom
Unarmed victors amidst magicians and astrologers
masked as Beltheshazar, Shadrach, Mishach and Abed-nego
and with all secrets sealed
Should Daniel be the last patronised hero?
