The Risen Parapet

And  the generalists knew one better
preaching to the converted
They have risen above their parapet
Industrious said the observer
as the moon made a foray
anywhere else

Have you seen the sun rise 
Repeating in its perpetuality
Then blow the burgles
for news to come back in my time, 
eavesdropping like elf's ears
as the specialists made their first foray
under dawns reign
