Trebuchet
May 30, 2008
The counterweight was releaced.
The rope was pulled tight.
Swinging in an arc on the axis.
The flaming missile was launched.
We stood there as it came.
It seared through the air.
Then landed on our king.
We all stood there in shock,
As they released the rest.
Hell was rained upon us.
By the weapon of the horsemen.
Such is the power of the trebuchet.
