Ares At War

Lift your chin,

 Focus your gaze
because there,
in the corners of the dark
Is the Beginnings
of Catastrophe.

Be mindful
where you
 place       
	your 
feet,       
as you Dance through 
the Destruction.

Disregard
the bubbling
Fear of Inquiry.
You already have
 the answers
to your 
questions.

You know
Destiny is
Rotting
and Hope
is in
Paralysis.

No one, but you, 
knows
the Torture
of being
a Leader.
And,
with that,
the knowledge
that you
cannot
be saved.

You fight,
without thought
of rescue,
to Sever
their 
Strength.

To see them
fall,
      like 
            the
                 graceful 
                         Corpse
		       of an Angel.

            You 
            Pray
         for your 
        Enemies,
      for you know
   the love of battle
 is a Vicious Romance
    with no escape
            till 
            the 
            end.
