Pyrrhic

 Pyrrhic you

And your victory that is

Mate

An enemy awaits and the

War grinds on

You can stand and cheer and accept

All the praise and the medals

Of those misled smiles beneath

You can gloat all you want but remember

Remember Pyrrhus

At least he knew the score right off

He didn't bask and roar

Unlike you

Mate

You gotta climb down off there soon

See what comes

What aid

The armour of rose petals and boasts

Grants you

Cries of War

The clouding of hearts and the
Accompanying
Rising fear that settles like
A mist to obscure the views of
Better times and dreams past and future tense
Like dust
Like locusts that blot out the sun
These obstruct desires and intelligence alike
Vision an' plans an' thoughts an' streams
Consciousness
Accomplices I seek and the
Establishment of alibis for
Imminent crimes
Seeking kin akin for the time inevitable
When the mist rises
The dust settles and
The season of the insect
Declines
I will have weathered
Endured
Remain unaltered
The changing of the course of winds
Rains to baptize
Rising from the mire and dirt
Lungs filling
To let loose
Cries of war
