Empire of Blood

A Tanka of Lament

Gladiators fight
in a coliseum cage
where respect once lived,
Ugly empire writ in blood.

Presented my paper on portrayal of gladiators in reenactment at the RAC/TRAC 2026 conference during the TRAC 2 session organized by Alexander Iles. The conference was held at Aarhus Universitet. Met old friends and made new ones.
