I am watching a steady stream of roman soldiers marching down the stairs. It is like a repeat of the same person each time. In monotone colouring. He holds the knife perpendicular to his body about 9 inches in front. He wears a helmet. His head to looking forward. I am taken by the sameness of this picture. I hear the words "marching off to war". I am the person that is watching over the people marching off to war.
