Hierarchy
Part II
He was a soldier, a warrior at heart,
She, a princess without freedom to start.
Within castle corridors they convened,
Ignorant to how they’d intervene.
A lash, a flicker, a hum and snicker,
Her smile wrought glee and laughter.
Wealth dressed bodice and pale fair skin,
To be her suitor would be gods’ sin.
A slick sly smirk of honest quirk,
His warm glare fashioned by work.
Click clack of boots and armor rattle.
His role was to succumb to endless battle.
