Poem: Warrior Spirit

Hair black as the raven
Circling the field of bodies below
The first kill was memorable
The thousandth was forgettable

Poem: Toy Soldiers

Wind them up watch them titter
All the clockwork soldiers
Marching in their rows
Left right left right
Salute

Poem: Lonely Halls with Echos of Plans

In rooms where guests used to congregate in I sit alone
With my thoughts focused on the notable absence of you
Whose angelic voice would fill up these hollow halls with song
Where the people would dance and marvel at the spectacle

Poem: The Beginning of the First Day

Now is the moment of choosing
Facing an unseeable enemy
Versus suffering immeasurable
Losses in the form of knowledge
And those tentative friendships

Poem: Couplet of War

The sound of horse hooves gallop across plains
As the boys with their trumpets play their refrains
In their gleaming metal armor polished bright
Charge rows and rows of the mounted knights
Forward on in martial order towards the rising sun
