Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Fiction in Tile

Dug up is a quite rare mosaic
In Israel at a synagogue.
Found in old ruins, and a take
Is that tiz a depictalogue,
Showing Alexander the Great
Meeting with a Jewish high priest.
Yes, time wise the truth would negate,
Yet a tall tale the mosaic pieced -
That even Alex was so awed
By a power greater than he,
And bowed before the Israel God,
A sort of spin on history.

All conquerors have come and gone,
But spun religion does live on.
