Axis & Allies - damowords

Stalin’s City
The Sixth Army thunders to the Volga,
The swastika hoisted over Elbrus,
In front, unending acres of Asia,
Behind, the passage of the conquerors;
Resting their flank
Upon the deep, dark Don,
Onwards advance the tanks, onwards & ever on!
BOOK XVI
The Maltiad
With sleeves roll’d up, sporting short pants,
On mountain slope stood Willie,
Watching apartments, parks & plants
Of this white cubist city,
The first hint of caution supplants
Invincibility!
For infesting the city & the plain
The Red Army is set to fight again.
Above shored‐up defences pour
Fourth Richtofen Air Fleet,
Planes by the score bringing the war
To level ev’ry street,
The will man gains to resist ills is temper’d in the heat.
Stalingrad

De lʹOrient viendra la coeur Punique
Facher Hadrie & les hoirs Romulides
Accompagneʹ de la classe Libyque
Temples Mellites & proches isles vuides.
