My face is painted



My face is painted

My face is painted, painted for you.  Leather polished  the tarnish scrubbed rubbed away, dirt brushed from my tunic, buckles shined to a mirror finish to honor you. 

I wait; wait for you and your leagues. I fear not, death does not render my flesh soft trembling weak from fear,  I embrace death the challenge to this flesh.  I’ve killed in battle and on the streets,  Death is with me, a dear close friend.  

We will dance,  the dance of death; my sword against yours; shield against shield.  This is my being, join me, I long for your close embrace.

I wish you luck,  for one of us will die in the glory of battle this day of death.

From the Ramblings.
