the warrior is shackled
and puts his blade
to use cutting appetizers
to sate the gluttons
and the all-gods of money
be they mystical
or real as the shackles
the cutting
lasts for 8 or more hours
a day
and then his hut for sleep
and then back again
and he might do this forever
but maybe his shackles
are made out of pride.
