Their eyes were so bright,
The whites of it dancing
Like the moon in the night,
Alive, as they stood there,
Crouching.
The oppressive evening
Brought a cave of shadows,
Heavy footsteps leaning
Towards a hallway bare,
Or so deceiving.
They carried themselves
With a regal air,
Their sunburnt fingers—deft,
Clutching their scabbards,
And in them,
Mops.
