Analysis of The Mystical Seven
For Ireland they sought the fruits
Of justice and peace: the former
Germinating the latter.
~
A reality formed by God, who is
Biblically 'Love', and whom the
Father of lies sought to replace.
~
A father ensuring the birth of British
Imperialism and its brutal acts
Across the world.
~
Peace is the flower of a nation's
Freedom and the victims of the Easter
Rising sacrificed in pursuit of it.
~
Thus as the author of all is mystical
Those who pursue his produce are also
Mystical and 7 is known as the mystical number.
