Such looks—
Full of confidence

Yet all fall
At Sekigahara

I hate seeing "O" next to your name...

so I googled.

Interesting, though of course, I can't be sure of your intent, I liked the idea. You can be very complex in just a few words, John. I like that.

Maybe the Battle of Sekigahara where the last shogun's took control of Japan? Not sure I understand the context either. It could just be the fall of pride, or the brevity of life/empire/power? Provoking.
