Venus for Victory

The ancient Maya checked the sky
To chart their course on what to do.
Both sun and moon were big on why
The Mayan life went on review.
Venus' bright light apparently
Was the main guide for waging war.
The calendar was checked to see
'Twas good or bad time, less or more.
The Mayans tracked to figure out,
Adding, subtracting, there and here,
The exact best date to, no doubt,
Make their enemies disappear.

Look to Venus and do the math
To time the time foes take a bath.
