The War

For many years I fought a war
but never vanquished me
for every attack plan I made,
there in defence I’d be.
Mayhaps I should surrender;
accept victory and defeat.
Perhaps we can live in peace
if we let ourselves just meet.
I might even start to like him
we’ve fought for all these years;
and maybe if we work together
we can forget all of life’s fears.

About a foolhardy florilegium

Nullius addictus iurare in verba magistri, quo me cumque rapit tempestas, deferor hospes.
