"To subjugate the enemy's army without doing battle is the highest of
excellence."
What is this?
Cloaked as she was
And frowning - How
I wondered could
I find out what
Or why without asking;
So I did. What?
Which of course
Made it worse.
She took implements
From her purse
And used them tactically.
I tried to recall Sun Tzu
But it was all a blur.
I looked about
Frantically for cover.
She stood strategically
Blocking the door
Dabbing at tears
With a tissue.
I was doomed.
