and this once more he said to the dying and the dead
“there’ll never be a sanctuary here”
and the rest of us in tears, dark drowning in our fears
looked to those behind to provide cheer
there were curses in those days flying round the maze
wherein we faced the vagaries of time
and as the matter stood we were doing all we could
though not a one of us was in his prime
precious blood we shed as we followed fortune’s thread
through the darkest corridors of doubt
but sometimes so they say the weak will win the day
and we came upon our quarry with a shout
with battle colours high we swore we’d win or die
and chased the cursèd monster to it’s lair
while those around us died we held on to our pride
and took our bloody vengeance on it there
though vengeance may be sweet in the battle’s heat
it never once could cure an ailing soul
and caught beneath the weight of a cold uncaring fate
we mourned the ones who never reached our goal

/ August 26, 2011The Dragon and Redemption
the wingèd wyrm flew into sight
all on the field quailed
some swore to fight the loathly beast
the rest of us just bailed
and when at last the brave ones won
we knew the time was right
to damn them all as traitorous scum
and claim WE’d won the fight
The Battle Scene
they came at us with eyebrows raised*
through fear our senses numb
we raised our guns and with a shout
blew them to kingdom come
* admittedly not the most threatening of weapons

/ August 26, 2011My last comment doesn’t apper to be in English! What I meant to say was, when I posted the link and then hit “post comment”, it did not appear so I reposted it and didn’t know if it would still be there after I hit “post”.
I think I was too busy laughing at the eyebrow comment to post correctly.
