War

Men in brigantine would tell that war would/never changes
that steel will clash nevertheless regardless of the ages
for men know war like iron in their blood,  gunpowder blazes
The sages, though would say that
Even if/then blind with rage can,
a secret spoken sultry softness, a warriors heart his weakness, brave and bold, nay speak of him as restless in evening. For when you've given everything you can create an lost it, is when the battle is truly known and revealed fully cost is.
