Poetry Month: More Marlowe

Let it never be said that any words in the mouth of Tamburlaine great were not epic.

Come, let us march against the powers of heaven,
And set black streamers in the firmament,
To signify the slaughter of the gods.

I tried today to convince a coworker that instead of inspirational quotes from various businesspersons, his email signature should contain statements from Tamburlaine the Great.  After all, which of our clients would dare to complain to or neglect their bills from a corporation which is the hate and scourge of god? Unfortunately, corporate culture is far more accepting of inspirational slogans than of chasing the stars from heaven.
