The Battle of Thermopylae
April 11, 2023
In a pass between a mountain and a sea
A fight for all and thee
Two empires in ultimate strife
A fight to decide life
Geysers and springs
The kiss of a ring
The help of the boat
The army over the moat
Those who were weak hid
Those who were strong did
Those who were there rid
In a pass between a mountain and a sea
A death to who and he
Fore the king of Sparta and the grape
A single slice to the nape
The political juggernaut
The marbles rot
The help for the city
The power of those so witty
The government of a killer’s son
The yoke of the rising sun
Yet the chase to pursuit their run
In a pass between a mountain and a sea
A stab from them and reed
For he was a person of the hell
Though in his past all he knew was the yell
The burning of the wall
A killing for half of all
The tunnel through a giant mountain
A betrayal forth ark anton
They had the knowledge from he who declared
His allegiance of the Persians had aired
Yet little did he know, those who he left would have him marred
In a pass between a mountain and a sea
A famous battle for all to see
The dead king lay on the ground
His body for all around
The burning of the citadel
An idea none could sell
The traitor returned for more
Sparta was not the badge he wore
The legendary phalanx died at extraordinary rates
The killer’s men died those who he hates
They knew that hades had arrive to the hot gates
In a pass between a mountain and a sea
A show for her and she
Only once for they can see
The battle of Thermopylae
