Literature Text

Afraid of change;
In dawn, darkness
Iron turned

Like armor spawned
In time of burn—
Execution.

In battle mound
In fear be wound
Let arms be bound.
Let teeth unleash,
Let blood be near…
Hear howl sound

That which wins:
The one that feeds;
The one with strength,
And other wither.
The one with strength,
The one that feeds
And wins.
The perfect sword against the unbreakable shield, in terms of abstracts in the human mind. There are several allusions, but most of them aren't obvious unless one knows the source.

^^ my poems go more like:
Roses are red
Violets are blue
What comes next?
I don't know....
How about you?

cool sounding stuff though, that middle part made me flinch...
