Glimmers of hope, as
showers of metal rain
down. Slashing through
iron and steel.
None shall outfight me,
none shall out gun me,
I am Aeneas, leader of the
Trojan hordes.
I may have fled before,
but now I am learned
and pity be to those
who stand against me.
Jupiter does empower me,
my immortal father Vulcan sorting right
from wrong.
I vanquish the suppressors
watch my furore, god given power
in my suit of bronze.
