It's a magnificent piece. Also, I'd like to cpmliment you on the way this is written. You see, many people who put curse words into their poetry detract from the weight of their words. Although, your did not. It held it's heaviness even with the cursing. Kudos :)

Lovely.

The imagery here is really awesome. The third stanza's my favorite. What is the flag bearer? Is it a symbol for something?
