Some will battle darkness and some will combat light. All of them unarmed, go forward to the fight. An early leap, perhaps, then slowly to the fray. Reincarnation lay six short steps away. These faceless men, a score shy four, Lead church and state into this war.
*Forward* *backwards* is what I do all day. I come in all different shapes and sizes. I can be scary, and I can calm you down. What am I ??
I come once a year, a day of cheer, A time to laugh and not to fear.
My jokes are many, and some are bad, But they're all in fun, so don't be sad.
I'm not a holiday, nor a festivity, Yet I'm celebrated with much levity.
What am I?
