Unlike any other, any other I have seen
they possess a power which hides unseen.
Under the radar where they want to be
this incredible power hides and is free.
They guard their secret, they do it so well
hiding in plain site, with no clue, with no tell.
Wielding there saber, with grace and laser accuracy
capable of a caress, or with a thought, strike lethally.
So humble, so quite this Army of One
so lucky are we, that they are the one.
For in the wrong hands, this power I fear
would lay waste to our feelings, both real n near.
This weapon I speak of, there is no safe place
no borders, no doors can keep it from our space.
Silent and quick it moves with the speed of fire
this power can not be stopped, it infects our desire.
But this wondrous being, my Army of One
controls a gift more powerful than any gun.
Faster than bullets, more explosive than bombs
this power I speak of was mentioned in psalms.
Not bound by race, religion, politics or time
no security can detect it, few see it's crime.
Whether seen or heard , it does not matter
for we are all affected by it's guile n chatter.
This power I speak of, it mirrors it's master
dwelling deep in a mind, but surfacing faster.
Only wisdom and resolve can harness such force
anything less drifts towards a dark toxic course
Only a special few who touch this power
can transform it from a weapon into a flower
turn it inside out and give it new perspective
melt anger, judgment, hate into a calm collective
Where is our Army? Our Army of One
make right what is wrong, reverse what is done.
Our world under siege by hate, greed and fear
we need courage and hope, we need you near.
What is this power, this force I speak of
capable of opposing forces, hate and love
Why it is one in the same, that is it's prowess
it all depends on it's Master and it's harness.
This wondrous gift, this power they protect
is the magic over “words” and all their effects.
With thought and passion they bring them to life
capable of any bidding, of touching any life.
How do I know, who is an Army of One?
ahh, that is the trick, it is not easily done.
They are calm n quite, hiding in place
wielding such power takes empathy n grace.
How do I know, if I have what it takes
to be this Army of One, to fix our mistakes?
Ahh, that is quite easy, a special mirror you need
look deep inside and truthfully tell what you bleed.
