This way is Long

by

Joseph Birnbaum

This way is long, bit by bite with arrows and lice.
Polish your sword, fit to fight with men and mice.
Grip a maid fair, young and tight with fire and spice!
Your gold be gone, slip by slight, you're bad with dice.
This way is long, endless in sight and slick with ice.
