The Gladden Scribbles by gladdensir(m): 8:53pm On Dec 12, 2021 |
I don't know whether i'm trying but only you people can give me credit on my work, so beneath is an excerpt from my dramatic verse which I'm willing to share with you [color=#990000][/color] A shaman's incantation from (A SHAMAN, A VISITOR AND THE NIGHT CHILDREN) SHAMAN Abomination! Sickle of death, Reaper of man's breath Misty sky, Man's final bye What a loony man would duel with death What a folly act to seek wealth in death; What a vain is this world of pain Where men diverts from their fated lane I know my lane, so I dined with death He knows my name when I seek his strength I sought his wave, He bade my foes to grave They doubted death's hand He shoved them around Death winked at their might And gave ground its delight Death is the end of wealth As it is the end of birth Killing is death's mirth Be you in wealth or dearth Death is blithe of health But deal with age fated length; O dreary death! I sought your strength That I may tell my foe You are life's fatal blow And with just a word Let me my enemy's deed reward By your formal bye Which is 'DIE! |
