A battle is just a side dish, in this banquet of war. And the slight victory is of little consequence to a broken soldier.

the battle is won but the war isnt over
as the soldier lies scarred in his cot
news of victory is of little consequence
because what good is a broken soldier
in the trenches of a battlefield
