[Metal Scream]

 

Preparation

Getting ready, packing up

moving out, marching outward

checking, cleaning, testing, hoping

Anticipation

 

Searching

Taking point, scanning, heartbeat

Pressure, must see... see them first

Darkness, the metal and the dark,

something dripping...

 

Panic

Chaos, noise... lights in the dark,

reformation, running... fighting...

ringing in my ears, where are they?

taking aim, raining hell....

 

Brimstone

They fall... dead?

sharp pain... flash in my eyes...

I become one of the many...

 

 

 

Peace.

Kipi! Another post by Master Wolfe.

 

Poems about war are always intriguing. I think because war is somewhat facinating to a degree.

 

This one is great, only suggestion I have is to read your poem out loud once you are done. If anything go into a room, close the door..and belt it out like you were reading it to an audience. It's a really easy and natural way to identify places that might need more content simply to make it flow correctly. (not that im saying this one doesnt flow correctly, just something ive found to help improve myself when writing)
