I really enjoyed this poem. It is incredibly evocative. On the other hand, can't you picture the captains and crews of the boats now burned and kicking the rocks up on the beach in a fit of fury because they sure as hell hadn't signed on to be infantry in the Conquest of Mexico. I find it odd that so many dyed-in-the-wool liberal/progs are always eager to join in chanting, "follow your dream!" but never stop and consider the dreams of men like Cortez.
