Gladiator

Locked in place on a high cross
Swords spoke the foreword
A quick glance at eternal peace
Combat defined his wounds

Only the pen of history
Penetrates his heavy armour
Behind his shield lies purgatory
At the height of an evil empire

Dear One

I gulp a flame of desire
At the sight of your ecclesiastical attire
Being proxy for a pacifier
That elicits a comfort for my quagmire

A sun in a darkened profile
A moon that illuminates the...

Foreword: I wrote this piece in 1984. Seems kind of prophetic now.

they wanted more land;
So they bombed little...

In a foreword  backwards kinda way

It came by in a breeze so slow. 
Then it charged onward in its rage.
Forever moving foreword, the world its stage.
But someday the wind will go away.
