In somber, inexplicable tones
perched atop ineffable thrones,
chimes the chorus'd war of light
utterly cast on perception's blight.

A manner t'wards anemic hearts
gesturing what chicanery imparts,
pleas for hollow comraderie
allowed to fester indeterminably.

For what the patriot now decrees
'pon silvered powers loosed and free,
carries the ingnomimious chore
salvaging the luster of thrones restored.

Less to that which lives be lost
on holy ground's exacting costs.

Walter,

Again, you reach out and touch with your words, and say just exactly what I feel. Some talent this! You are, my dear friend, truly a poet.
