The Taurus
I look and all I see is a Bull fight and all I can do is laugh
A certain Taurus tramples to and fro, fiery are his eyes
Fire in a certain Taurus's eyes, but he can't see through the ashes
And like a phoenix the Taurus begets more flames, the ash is the fuel
A game of cat and mouse more than a bull fight
Despite it's huff and billows, the certain Taurus fails
I know the sharp horns of this Taurus
I know its horns stabbed hearts before
But now its horns stray off course.
A certain Taurus charges with fury in a hurry
The Taurus thinks the more charges it makes
The more likely the matador shall meet his fate
But the Taurus is a fool, an angry fool
The Taurus should know when to act for the bull is old
But that is an obvious fact
A cetian Taurus is tired now and it gives a final charge
The Taurus falls for the mirage
The clever matador is the victor, he gives thanks to The Art of War
Away with the red cape and unsheathe thy sword
So, doesthe clever matador
With his needle-like sword, the matador slays the certain Taurus
And that is all there is to write.
