The swords clashed the soldiers screamed
Is this a nightmare or one crazy dream?
Will Paris return this girl or will she get taken away?
I wonder what his brother would have to say?
He would fight for his brother's life
and do anything to keep his beloved Troy away from this strife.
Achilles came with his heel and his fighting men
They fought not for Greece but for their chance to say one final amen
The carnage ensued with a fraudulent horse
and Achilles' blood flooded the street so coarse

Not bad. This is the first for Clio. I'm happy someone chose this muse. Good write, it makes me want to read up on the Iliad again.
