"I see you have a sword. I have one too. They're very ... manly. And ... tough."

I am walking down the rows of graves
I am walking with my feet on the earth
I am walking among the
Paper-thin headstones that seem to
Sway in the breeze
Maybe crumble
Succumb to the rusty moss climbing across
Their shoulders
As the ages of forever
Are under me
As I watch centuries
In the fluttering grass.
