Day the Romans Levelled the City

The column of Romans came from the east They mowed down our stone structures Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! We were all intimidated as the amphitheater fell This was totally unexpected and frightening. We ran from them for there was no choice They had the power, and they were fierce We were minions, who only knew tools We did not know weaponry or war And we did not want to.

Makes me wonder how it must have been to have lived through the demise of that great civilization. Dare I think about it? I think not.
