All Hail, the Misguided Soldier, the Misguided Hive

All hail, The brave soldier Who stands firm Like the fickle shell of a snail Before the oncoming foot of titans All hail, The brave soldier, A ferocious bee Who strikes his stinger into the enemy Comforted by fleeting thoughts of heroism -a safeguarded hive Thoughts that flit away in the wind Like windswept Pollen ambushed by desert -as the bee falls for the cause All Hail, The brave invader Who fells foe for his country All hail murderer, Comforted by a noble cause Sent out on wings of glory to cut down fanged tigers Purging threats, safeguarding life -the hive All Hail, Misguided killer For all tigers are fanged All people threats -All people life All Hail, The weary soldier -sacrificial lamb Joined out of a desperate cause A squalling infant, a taunting belly And the weary soldier Gives his sacrifice to the gods of the Hive And prays for rain.
