Ode to “Hammer” Joe
by Eric Davidson
From North America a man’s voice arose,
above all the **** and the clamor…
reinforced by the gods of ancient prose,
arrived Nordic Thunder’s Hammer.
A link in the legendary Tri-State Terror,
he sang many a battle hymn….
and united with youth who’d been adapt,
at risking both life and limb.
On Resistance night, amidst smoke and light,
with No Remorse leading the throng…
an oath to Ian, with guitars a reelin’,
who knew it would be the Hammer’s last song?
The hall was soon cleared of the Skins and beer,
there were several parties after the show…
while some were enroute, a skirmish broke out,
and red was the blood that did flow.
Expressions of rage could fill this page,
over the loss of our comrade’s life…
a suspect was freed by the powers that be,
“Hammer” Joe had two kids and a wife.
Incantations are what’s required now,
let’s summon the gods of war.
Unleash the werewolves that thirst for blood,
for the Hammer let’s even the score.
Our mission’s agenda is Fourteen Words,
our success will be judged only when…
together we’ve forged a future that’s brighter,
for our children and our race once again.
For all eternity and forever more,
as long as our race shall live…
let’s never forget the deeds of the Hammer,
when the chances for success were slim.
As kindred spirits now join the ranks,
our scene which is obviously growin’…
we’ll raise our arms and give our thanks,
to the gods who gave us Joe Rowan.
Remember “Hammer” Joe Rowan
October 1, 1972 – October 1, 1994/105
Hero of the White Race!
