Analysis of The Liars Fjord
A warrior can be an artist,
but can an artist go to war
Can the craftsman ever breathe the fire,
that tempered the blade he forged
The warrior-poet, not the poet-warrior,
the difference in the score
All fury then his words inspire,
—to bridge the liars fjord
(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2016)
