BattleHunger

Magnetic poetry.



The warrior waits
restless for action
Unmoving,
wildness tamed.

Denial and power
Passion and pride
Fortify the spirit-
sharpen the hunger.

Mouth dry,
Watching.

Gaze cold,
Listening.

The dark song of War
Descends
like a shroud
like a raven

Like her rage.

She rises fluidly
Racing towards destruction,

A nightmare in motion.

Skin soft,
Bone hard,

Heart afire.
