The soldier, the sword, the egg, the wall.

The soldier, the sword, the egg, the wall.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

He who has the sword
will cut through
all the bullshit.

You can’t say that!
Why not?
Because it’s true!

He who has the sword
will slowly dice and slice
the people that lie
in a mangled terrible way.

How’s that then?
You can’t say that either
because it ain’t proper!
Oh really! Well just
shove off then Humpty!

He who has the sword
will guard the wall
that pushes the egg
that feeds the people.
