Iyer's Alcman

Tho' long turned to dust & from no lust for gold
Sparta, thy maidens must spare not the old
Exulting in trinkets & their Goddess grey-eyed
To whom War too is a baby; Grace, genocide.

Envoi- 
Prince! What's funny is not that Pity grants me money, but that Harvest Dawn gleans me wit
 In Poetry's stables to shovel, Tyrtaeus, thy but Trojan horse's shit.
