skill and great courage

two brothers in arms

one might deduce

the Romans could very well

teach us all

a thing or two about

fear

quite too easily

perhaps their arrogance

is what murdered their

great ability's grace

as well as the pulse of

their very own kind

through th extensive pages

of their unforgettable history

they live on

proud, rigid and brave

merciless

but thankfully

harmless now...............
