![]() That Which is Placid is Not VacantA Poem by Bobby Madden![]() Fantasy.![]()
Fire rising through the trees
Onward over icy silver mountains high Smite your foes and raise the banner The land is yours to salvage from the invaders Eyes burning with a rage for the fallen Justice will rain upon the desolate waste Wounded and scarred by the tyrants of night Ever slashing opposition in this age of woe Swing the angelic blade upon the auburn plains Ice descending from the clouds of black Suffering, screaming, but never dying Voices calling on the horizon red Courage and hope aflame in your heart Away you will fly with the blade in the sky The beasts of the Nether will all fight in vain Serpents of water arise from the depths Horrific silhouettes of titans in the fog Your size will mean nothing when your sword crashes down Nothing will diminish the power you possess Not lightning, not bleeding, not unholy shadow Venture into caverns of creatures from long ago Eyes that never close and minds that never sleep You delve through the blackness in search of the light A horror is creeping and coming for you Subterranean lakes down in the deep Placidity does not indicate vacancy A battle that will shake the surface will unfold And victory will echo on the ancient walls of rock © 2014 Bobby Madden |
