I dont deal in absolutes
everything is gray with her
our borders have never been refined
and the skirmishes have been
bloody at times

she is the better at this game
more aggressive, more willing to risk
I hold my troops close,
always on the defensive

slowly I will advance
with espionage and deciet
favors for favors for
unpayed favors

years of war wounds
have hardened her to my cuase
I watch as she defeats for after foe
while I silently defend
my ever shrinking borders
