We have a winner!! - Tale of The Week 42
Congratulations
Sunbird Alkibijad wins his second ToTW. He is on a roll boy' s watch this new rising star.
"Roma"
Charon awaits, coins at ready.
Enemy comes, hold steady.
The wretched boatman, fear of olde.
Hold no anger, but behold.
Hades longs, for your shades.
Appease him not, my brigades.
They step closer, to their doom.
For their souls, sorrowfull gloom.
In times that come, world on fire.
Torches lit, the moment's dire.
Unleash the javelin, let it fly.
The more in air, the more will die.
Unsheath the sword, make no error.
Watch them panic, enjoy that terror.
Hold the center, press the flanks.
Reinforce the line, shred their ranks!
Form testudo, arrows come.
Let them waste, until there's none.
Quivers clear, now let's charge!
Are they brave, as their number's large?
Howl like mad, make them shiver.
Meadow blooded, by crimson river.
Foe that falters, in eternal shame.
For us no more, but an easy game.
Broken spirit, rout is close.
How they run, on their toes?
Wounded pride, their defeat.
Enjoy your victory, a mighty feat!
For our children, ground foe to dust.
Barbarian's nemesis, to be we must.
On this field, monument erect.
Savage army, here was wreck'd.
What's done here, forever known.
How bravely we, put those down.
Proud men, of Aeneas' blood.
Today's heroes, how tall you stood.
Centuries that come, remember fame.
Mother Roma, shout her name!
