"Who knows who cares
The knowledge of war is theirs
For some to seek, others find
To know what lies in honest mind
Fire to the frost and death to the dead
See blood, hot flame, turn dreams flooded red
Minions of the crystal, uniformed in same
Programmed for battle, minds to maim.
Darkness there, death follows
Her commands of murky depths of shadows
Darkness and cunning, the force of war
Ace's power, the nightmare of lore"
This one, next to "The Sun Bird" is probably my best. The rhythm makes it roll off the tongue nicely. It's influenced by Brian Jacques' Redwall poems, I think.
Anyway, I wrote this for my City of Heroes Warshade. It's her bio poem
