Update - My Scribbles

The Soldier

With strength inconceivable 
The tiny soldier marches on
Hoisting his prize aloft,
Determination,
Duty,
Destiny,
Complete conformity,

He trundles on
Knowing no better
Thinking no thoughts,
Acceptance,
Apathy,
Amenability,
Perfect pliability,

In line with his brethren,
A cog of thousands
Serving only his queen,
Loyalty,
Labouring,
Lading, 
Utter unity, 

The bliss of ignorance 
The content of unheeded, 
Never knowing the vastness of the world,
An exchange, 
For his purpose unquestioned.
