Ares god of Sparta,

Ares, god of war,

Leading a life,

Blood and gore,

Shattering bones like waves,

Upon the shore.

A malicious smile,

He completes his daily chore.

Sparta cheers as their lord approaches,

The generals stand tall,

with their golden broaches,

Watching silently as there lord encroaches,

The drums begin to pound,

As Athena lays down her crown,

With a grin of vengeance he calls

“Surely today, Athens will fall.”

The author's comments:
Part of this poem came to me at about three in the morning when I probably should have been sleeping, But I gotta` admit I really like the ending of this one. Any advice or constructive criticism is always welcome. ^.^

Well, sometimes you call yourself Sammy and you look like someone I know named Sam who does stuff there.  Weird!  Well, sorry for bothering!

It is very, very good but I do have constructive criticism for you: try to work on rhythm and balance.  That's about it!
