mad Viking.

this gladiator

inside me

is old and tired

sword grown heavy

this mad Viking

old and tired

and yet there are still

places to go, things to do

sky's to fly

in this old wreck of a body.

a thousand madnesses strungout across the plain

the cloud's in full retreat

and why do those clouds

in the firstplace 

leave these changing drops

You inspired me to do a poem, when I read this I got thoughts of the night in shining and fair princess. I liked it, keep writing.
