Title: Slay to each thine own
Post by: Dracos on May 08, 2002, 08:42:14 PM
An excercise in duplex perspective poetry...  done on a whim... I forget what exactly inspired this but I can always picture the scenes of battle when I read it....  ^_^  Well, as i declared it my corner, might as well get the ball rolling ^_^

Slay to each thine own

Relaxed is the clouds
A wave within the shadow
of an un-forgotten beast
A shade within a dream

Slay to Each Thine Own

To fate upon a darkened reach
Eviscerate the chosen being
Upon the hope within the dream
Crush the heart, beat the soul
Bringing destiny within a child
A nightmare never-ending
A light... to shine upon the world
Bringing hatred and despair
An unforgotten tale of truth
A riddle of woe and pain
With thy sword, on thy blade
With fierce claw, lashing tail
I Do Thee Slay....

[End poem]

^_^  Hope ye guys liked it.  Feedback is always loved ^_^  as long as it isn't flames.

Oddly enough, this is one of the few pieces of poetry I enjoy.

This might just give me a few ideas for Dragomir, thanks Drac ^_^

Thank ye folks.  This piece was actually rejected from the literary magazine of my school... along with most my other works.  I believe it fell under 'excessively dark or violent'.  But they took my four horseman of the apocolypse piece.  Go figure.
