Traverse

To walk over this Traverse
Needs courage all around your view;
Valour is an enemy of soldiers
But you befriend bravery like Spartacus.
One lunge is ready from you
And he shall topple doing over you.
One craves for majestic rewards
But you hunger for food, drink and clothing.
This management of your inner self
Rejects others in your wake,
For the shield of deliverance bathes you.
