A Poem
a fleeting glance with haughty eyes upon sacred cleansing no surprise in battle but safe, now summ’nd please go home and be a husband duty bound, with you i will remain brothers not yet free from pain in battle not safe, now summ’nd, someone’ll go and be a husband
Inspiration
This was loosely based around King David when he committed adultery with Bathsheba who consequently became pregnant. After learning this, David tried to cover his sin and eventually arranged for Bathsheba’s husband, Uriah, to be killed in battle. (2 Samuel 11:1–12:9)
