The Red Tower, by Giorgio de Chirico
Robert L. Martin

Of Chivalry and Duty

Of chivalry and duty combined
With knighthood and nobility in mind,
Soldiers stand up for us and fight
On and on with no letting up in sight.
 
If they die, they did it for us.
Yesterday alive today only dust.
’Tis our time to honor what they did;
Jumped into the fire and closed the lid
In the name of
Chivalry and self sacrifice.
