This is also a late nite poem. How do u like it.?

Question:"trip the hammer"

You stand their like Goliath,
high upon your solid silver throne.
You thought yourself oh to be,
much more than mortal man.

You speak of honor and of trust,
but yourself cannot be trusted.
The chains you used to bind us,
beyond repair and rusted.

You stand up, just to fall,
prepare you for the worst.
Not the man you thought you were,
just a coward like the rest.

If only you could see yourself,
destined to die alone.
You dug the grave you now lie in,
come now trip the hammer.

You're no one's God anymore,
just a copward in cheap disguise.
Bring you praise, say your name,
we can't recall you anymore.

some people just think they are so good and better than others and that everyone else has to be like them, so they tell people to do things that they want them to do, but act like God wants them to do them. And then, people finally figure it out, they had it coming to them.

your title confuses me...other than that...i like the idea behind someone who thinks that their high and mighty being brought down

The downfall of one so 'high and mighty'. He got his own come uppance. It was due. Great poem.
