Veni Vidi Vici

In 47 BC, the Great Warrior Chanted “Veni Vidi Vici” “I came, I saw, I conquered.” In full glory along Pompe’s Way Pompe In Julius Caesar’s time Majestically rode on Return! The crowd gathered waving flags For the safe return of a hero, Even Captives he brought home! A swift defeat of the enemy, Smoking Cities burnt down To the ground left he behind. Plundered of all that’s good, No one left to tell the tale, For ashes couldn’t speak! Once home He victoriously Shouted to the frenzied crowd, “Veni Vidi Vici I Came I saw I Conquered.”
