Like the past and in the present, the strongest survive...
 



Armour plated 

Sword wielding 

Grim determined 

Heart beating 

Friend and foe 

Always leading 

Is he man 

Or God seething 

Suited man 

By clothes protected 

He's the one 

Best selected 

Never losing 

Unaffected 

Fighting on 

So well directed 

One like either 

Born to be 

No conditions 

Can set free 

The making of 

A man as he 

No grasping straws 

Create him thee 

Patroclus in 

A race to win 

Was just a man 

Of normal sin 

He never knew 

Mistake he made 

To don the suit 

In death he laid 

What lesson learned 

Too late to know 

And not to be 

A friend in show 

But be yourself 

And act no other 

Even though 

You be his brother
