LE GENERAL

He marches down the parade

Pure course

The General

Before time

Infinite

His generals in tow

Guard of honor displayed

Wonder of the nations

Glory glow

Dazzling in robe lacing his feet

A golden sash brands chest

Seven stars the marvel in his hand

Majestic

Spectacular adorn

Hair drapes down his shoulders

Sparkling white

Like wool

Like snow

Eyes blaze like a fire

Consuming all that’s devoid of virtue

Utterly

Glimpses from moment of reckoning

Inevitable

His voice cascading through ages

Civilizations

Timeless

Tying up story in one line

Eternal

Soaking pieces with nostalgia

substance

Like the roar of a lion

Mighty rushing waters

False unsuccessfully attempts to take cover

Cornered

Shades of darkness

Unable to withstand the brilliance of his face

And the crowns that adorn his head

Majesty

Le General

To come
