What I Learned from American Movies about Knights
Those who come close
to the king
get to sleep with servant girls
on feather beds and have
a few rich meals.
It's better than sleeping
in the hay all the time;
but those who spend
a few summer nights
in the warmth of flesh and quilts
will fight and die in the autumn mud.
One day a courtier,
a soldier next.
