Mistaken Perception
on the stone parapet*
the small troop stood guard
to keep any interlopers
out of their hallowed yard
they didn't want others
setting up a permanent camp
for that kind of turf gain
there'd be no rubber stamp
whomever contemplated
taking over at the location
were issued with a not
so nice get lost explanation
the place was theirs it would
be held by only them
a special title awarded unto
this company's stem
being aware of who's in control
on the castle's fortification
will serve those invaders
a very well timed notification
upon the gates was seen
the following post's discretion
to not heed it will be viewed
*as a mistaken perception
