The “why?” that cannot be identified,
Defined beyond its face
A hazardous life with Newton’s law
Setting the young in motion
Long columns of face-blind,
Ghost-eyed pawns to war
For liberty and commerce.
And we celebrate – loudly
The necessary battles
On that slow arc
Rumored to bend
To perfection
Strong images and finish! I loved it!
I’m sure this spurt of creativity is due to the book (Painter of Battles) you gave me. So I should thank you.
