Requiem of the Martyr

''Requiem of the Martyr is a collection of poems by Remington Dalson. They often deal with the lack of heroism in supposed heroes, and work to glorify the common soldier if not the men they are commanded by.''

=Legends, Heroes, Champions= Proudly they prance, like dancing stallions enraptured with their own sense of worth. Yet rarely they charge, in ordered battalions, to prevent the tides from turning worse.

Merrily they boast, toasting and cheering, for they are heroes of the day. Never do they visit those who perished; not a flower left upon the grave.

Legends, Heroes, Champions they all have a name but not one did I ever see lead the charge -- they give orders from far away.
