 Not unlike the victorious warrior of Spartan fame,
with upright charge that demands a gallant heart.
Furious undertaking that ignites an inquisitive frame,
often pricks, a steadfast pledge -- a glorious start.
Not without a whiff of self important arrogance,
the human disposition -- but a derelict design.
The tolerant few battle conceit -- strike a distance,
portray stiff difference, despite persuasive incline.
Between untowered kingdoms -- they defy uneven chance,
ransoms paid in full, while fate spells grim defeat.
Only Vitruvian blood be spared -- an oft-inane stance,
wash yourselves off unsteady thoughts, malice and deceit.
Unrestrained and unwary men seed great thought,
spartan discipline sparks victory into every battle fought.
