It was necessary for him
To make a decision which
Insured his success on the battlefield.
He was about to send his army
Against a powerful foe,
Whose men outnumbered his own?
He loaded his soldiers into boats,
Sailed to the enemy’s country,
Unloaded soldiers and equipment,
Then gave the order to burn the ships
That had carried them.
Addressing his men
Before the first battle, he said,
“You see the boats going up in smoke.
That means that we cannot
Leave these shores alive
Unless we win!
We now have no choice
We win or we perish.”
They won.
