Ottaman Strikes

sway armenian horde
your master,the ottaman
passes through your door


i wrote this to mark the anniversay of the ottaman/armenian war of 1915,today is the 
marked anniversary.i believe this would be the view of maybe a young,swaggering ottaman 
officer.

Much said in just three lines for the reader to ponder about. I really like the closing line. Keep on writing. Karen
