If spiders unite, they can tie down a lion

This is a call to arms
by Julian Still

arms to help,
arms to carry,
arms to fight and be merry,
arms to protect,
arms to say what needs to be said,
arms to do what needs to be done,
arms to hug and say sorry,
arms to see clearly and and call the alarm,
arms to push the load uphill,
arms to conduct,
arms to play,
arms to mark the dawning day,
arms to heal the wounded souls,
arms to grow the new green shoots,
arms to let go,
arms to hold on,
arms to breathe,
arms to bear witness,
arms to be inside,
arms to be outside,
arms to be,
arms

"a call to arms" is the medieval expression that 'the lord' would use to call his peasants, with their weapons, to come to fight.
