Liberty,                   Death


Tipped,
the balance lost...
Lopsided virtue gilded by dwarves
in giant's clothing.

They are seen, mondays and tuesdays
pushing stones uphill, or so it seems.
Feeding the fires beneath the scales,
mischief warbles an ironic sneer.

Chaotic cackling fires first volley
into a village unsuspecting.
No one cries
"Party foul!"
here.

Silently repairing post mortem,
walls rubble and
fingers comb through stubble,
hoping that is not a child
but a body double...

The brave don't ask why.

The pen is mightier,
dwarves clamber
to measure and compare
liberty to death.
