The Reason For Achilles Death Poem by elysabeth faslund

And when fire bred no breath within him,
did he inculcate innocuities...his being?

He had tred intrepid cities' tears underfoot,
while gods forged, in tandem, stronger plate

For his head, chest...deemed unnecessary by
miscreant mortal within, misbegotten in Time.

Achilles dealt his brother's valor a trifle,
bauble, for value.

In turn, Achilles brother knew that weak link,
gods' foolishness. Awarded his great brother

Syncopation of laughter, and revenge...
Silence.
