The words of the carrier drift through the streets.
"Our rival has surrendered, we prevail as elites."
Simutaneously residents sigh, a sigh of relief.
All conflict has ceased leaving the city in disbelief.
But a giant colt is gifted to them, clearing doubt.
A sculpture so well crafted it required them to go all out.
Citizens flocked the avenues to celebrate the end of their bloodshed.
Too bad they had no idea what was to lie ahead.
As the bash was done and as everyone was heading off to bed.
A group of creatures lay inside the colt's belly unread.
Patiently, they waited as the last torch was extinguished.
They crept out one by one, blending into the shadows undistinguished.
The creatures seemingly adopted human skin.
Heavy armor lined their god like torsos and,
Long blades rested in each of their firm grips.
The citys slaughtering was about to begin.
They wasted no time and the ear disturbing screaming began.
Fear and confusion dispersed all around, chaos ensued as everyone ran.
The city was alive again this time without a celebration.
How foolish Troy was to accept their rivals gift without hesitation.
