Bleeding For Supremacy

For thc city

And thc greed of the king

Impulse to be supreme

To dominate Sumer

Rivalry of the city-states

Battle hardened veterans

Land between the two rivers

Theatre of war

The kings of Sumer

With their helmeted warriors

Armed with spears

Trampling their enemies

Constant wars

Millenniums of misery

Justified slavery

Gods given victory

See the flash of blade

Grotesque execution

Soldiers bleeding

Lying on the ground
