Scene of the Loss

Have you ever pondered defeat in battle? Well, this is my illustration of just that...

We marched across the plain,
Oh what a sight to see:
Two hundred thousand men,
Opposite to me.
 
Left, right, left, right
Oh what a sight to see:
Two hundred thousand men,
Multiplied to three.
 
“Halt!” cried my general,
Oh what a sight to see:
Three hundred thousand men,
Letting steel free.
 
Friends falling cold around me,
Oh what a sight to see:
Three hundred thousand men,
Faces wrought with glee.
 
Bang! Snap! Thunk.
Oh what a sight to see:
An unknown man across the way,
Takes my life from me.
 
Gasping on the earth,
Oh what a sight to see:
Three hundred thousand men,
Sounding our defeat. 
 
I draw my final breath,
I hear the grim decree:
Three hundred thousand men,
Shout in victory.
