    The poem "The High Song" describes how life and victory are fleeting. It discusses how those who were once celebrated are now silent and forgotten. The poem notes that the victors and the defeated are now equal in death, and that their stories have become half-forgotten tales. It conveys that all people, no matter how accomplished, must meet the same inevitable end where even their echoes will fade away.
