The writings of Oddpoet

Hover­ing amid storm clouds
A bas­tion of bro­ken Earth and end­less sky
Moats armed with night­mares
And a child’s bro­ken cry
Eter­nal light­ning flash­ing
Stac­cato rev­e­la­tions in bas-relief
Waves of dark­ness crash­ing
Cloak­ing all in disbelief

A ter­ri­ble bat­tles wages
Between right and what is wrong
Ema­ci­ated haloed min­strels
Seek­ing power for their song

Demonic war­riors in night black armor
Evil swords in black­ened hand
A Pal­adin on a golden Char­iot
Scarred and tor­tured
engaged in his last stand

Death strug­gles
Swords whirling and whin­ing Thanatos’s refrain
On this Island
In this time
Reveals an ancient pain

On this Island
Through the misty veil of time
One lone Pal­adin on a golden char­iot
Alone in epic strug­gle
Pay­ing eter­nally for his crime

A sin­gle tear is shed
Vapor­ized by con­sum­mate fire
For­got­ten water for the dead
