Urban Warrior

His head bowed
in focus,
like an arrow
ready to dash forward.


His mortal presence boasts of tribal
histories;
powerful battle cries linger
as enemies were subdued
not only with strength,
but compassion.

Mythological creatures
conquered
not with force,
but with bravery of heart.

Attuned to the heavens
his spirit awaits the call,
to sprint into combat once again
like a piercing blade of destiny-
defending the weak
and upholding justice.
