A Wisp of ThoughtThere was a glimpse of time unknown to man
The things none may ever describe
All wrapped within this wall of thoughts

they say it
insouciantly

to flog the flesh and batter bones
and conquer lands, defending thrones -
though gods provoke, not one atones.

with battle-ax or bayonet)
braved blades, dyed red...
