All Hail Masculinity (The Roman Soldier)

by OkSayer

see Him run this Roman Soldier among the rocky roads past blossoming green growing trees it was One Vision among many that deny the movement in the bushes of the Roman Soldier young on the mountains i was growing older in the valley as He was i walked quietly through the mist to have a view the Roman Soldier he told me some things, this and that but the sun polluted my eyes. i said could it be that i could see the future in the eyes of the Roman Soldier Beauty grew Cold as he grew old upon the bushes of comfort (the Roman Soldier waits) for who, he said not quite so red as before the Palace of Snow encompasses the Roman Soldier weapons on the back and a shield on the front encompasses my Vision a Time and a place can not erase my Vision of the Roman Soldier He touched my hair with his cold fingers and i could feel myself growing older as i watched the Roman Soldier he said nothing and walked away on the rocky road and he drew the Sun in the dirt (i stood there, still waiting for the Roman Soldier) Time does not fly it attempts to and falls as it stares at the Roman Soldier my Vision lead me amongst the whispering trees to see a man in need behind him i saw as He could see a peaceful Roman Soldier my body shook in sight of the Roman Soldier as the Vision grew dimmer, my soul flew away my body bending down their bodies bending down (I am the One) The Sun has Risen I have risen all hail the roman soldier
