The shocking engagement of combat
No reprisal or even a wince
Stuck in this stance with other common men
Creating a bond stronger than ballistic steel
The mind games cause laughter decades later
In the midst, the pain of uncertainty, anxiety
Initial excitement diffused by reality of darkness
Paralyzed in this life, struck by blinding blows
The crucible of the royal road’s tolls
Forcing friendship in a cauldron of strangers
Survive together, destroyed apart, eternally connected six moving parts
Accepting gods fate without complaint
Infinite cycle of fury, doing all that was done
Causing endless perseverance for endless generations
Abandoned curiosity in hope of symmetry
Final realization of the cycle of peace.
