Today I’m going to use my elephants
And strike a blow against the might of Rome.
I’ll slaughter senators and hierophants,
I’ll murder aediles and their sycophants.
To arms, brave Carthage! Onward elephants!
Oh damn, it’s raining – think I’ll stay at home.

This is so cute, and such a neat picture to accompany the poem. Rain can make one change their plans - could even flood at times. Nice silver winner you have penned here.
