The Coming of Warg

The Coming of Warg

I am the harbinger,

I bring you death.

How dare you forsake me!

My might will smite your putrid flesh

and cast your corpse

to the winds of the apocalypse

to scatter across Hades.

I will toss you into eternal darkness

where your soul belongs,

where you will pay for your transgressions.

Do not underestimate my will

for my pen be limp

but my bite be certain

as that of Sköll, chaser of the sun.

Come feel the jaws of death

where I will crush you

and chew your filthy bones

to dust.

Your background is shining through. Nice to see you use old tales to create. Well done!

[Archangel Gabriel]

Thank you Jon. Beware the internet is a place of illussion. Kings may seem as beggars, beggars stride as Gods.

Wargs. Problematic little fuzzy critters aren't they? Seriously though. This is a solid positional poem. There are occasions when wargs need to be let out to run a bit. I keep mine on a short leash because I don't think I'm nice by nature. Nice is learned. Of course my warg isn't really a spine snapping warg - its more a of a coyote. An opportunist. A nipper of sheep. Rarely deadly - but persistent.
I found this poem strongly written and fascinating. I always wonder when reading something like this if it is a general admonition - or if there is an intended singular target?

[Archangel Gabriel]

Thank you TLB. It can be both. I have someone I need to get out of my system but it is simply a poem where I let myself experience the emotion.

[SteveB]

Very Revalations. Nicely done. You keep the spirit and tone throughout.

[Archangel Gabriel]

Thank you Steve

[Dana Alsamsam]

very aggressive and interesting to read! i love mythological creatures and i always enjoy reading your poetry that is riddled with mythology. great job!

[Archangel Gabriel]

I have walked with wolves and find them fascinating and awesome creatures.

[Keith]

That gets the message across. Dunno who Warg is, but he sounds like one scary SOB.

[Archangel Gabriel]

Oh he is Keith, evenI I would only enter his 'enclosure' with a rifle and back up. He is a wolf of Scandinavian legend. He is father to Skoll.

You should enter this in a scary dark contest...great photo too.:)

[Archangel Gabriel]

Thanks Rose. I am not one for contests, feels a bit too 'Miss World' to me lol
