The triumph
THE TRIUMPH
Tip toes
the shadows are still
their masters all silent
wine bottles
spread across the streets;
some whole, others broken
shields, spears
far from its keeper;
stripped of their honor
light fun
deep sleep for giants
great strength in low
move on!
the streets are nice
our captain ordered
wise steps
planned by the known
regarded not by fools
work done
king's head, off trunk
queen's pride, in dirt
great win
wonders for the coward
the thoughts of heroes.
victory! victory!!
at last we triumph
our crown now rules
