A leaf fell, twisting in the Fir Green Square, Like a spear thrown through the air; A dog, distant and real, Has barked five hundred years on Sheep Street. Holy Trinity, the bone keeper, keeps doors open. The Avon, not so sweet now, flows on; Swans swim and preen, and tonight, Henry will rage on Agincourt again, Calling on his brothers, and me, To breach the vicious cycle of lonely barks And the immutable march of time. Take my hand, look into my eyes, My brotherhood of men.

Stratford-Upon-Avon
A leaf fell, twisting in the Fir Green Square, Like a spear thrown through the air; A dog, distant and real, Has barked five hundred years on Sheep Street. Holy Trinity, the bone keeper, keeps doors open. The Avon, not so sweet now, flows on; Swans swim and preen, and tonight, Henry will rage on Agincourt again, Calling on his brothers, and me, To breach the vicious cycle of lonely barks And the immutable march of time. Take my hand, look into my eyes, My brotherhood of men.
