The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Birds of the Night


Recommended Posts

A little ditty I came up with when trying to come up with a villan in my head. Enjoy.

 

 

Birds of the Night

 

 

Silent birds of the night,

With angry cry and blackened heart,

Seek to find their prey so right,

 

A quick and most deathly flight,

With sharp beaks and darkened wings

Into the moon they fly from sight

 

From their post they depart.

Forced by word and magic rings

 

Dank, the soul of the mage,

Whose gestures damn the mortal man

To the depths, with hellish rage.

 

Freed from his bloody cage

Scorn and hatred fuel his burning way

Cunning guides his new rampage

 

To those who stand, who have not ran,

Their courage and bravery shall betray.

 

For Enos has returned.

        Spoken like a true ignominious incantation, a symphony to sin, a ballad to barbarism, an ominous ode...well, you get the point. It's good. It reminds me of some of the "beware" poems that are common in fairy tales and fantasy fiction. By the way, wasn't Enos the name of some evil sorcerer (perhaps in some way related to X-Death) in Final Fantasy V?
