Last Great Battle
The great equalizer of Ragnarok
valor tested of unicorns and men alike
demons of greed and destruction besieging
blood stains grass like spilled coffee
screams twitter a harmonious intonation
exhausted as battle fatigue sets in
another ally tossed like a tumbleweed
captivated horror as his body crumbles
agog free spirits die this day
heavens reentry a last reward
at the last great battle-Poem by Dragon Blogger

First Poetry Collaboration with Zorlone
- Collaborative Poems

25 Aug 2009
Zorlone and I collaborated on a poem together where we did an email exchange each writing a line of the poem and continuing to take turns until the poem was finished. This poem came out as the result of our first poetry collaboration, and I think it turned out nicely.
See if you can guess which lines were written by Dragonblogger and which were written by Zorlone.
At The Break of Dawn
Dark skies mirror the shadows in my soul
but moonbeams penetrate sanity into my heartA war of worlds beats within my chest
like hummingbirds in a springtime of sweethearts.As the bitter cold bites my skin, I know now what I must do
seek comfort in the warmth of a long forsaken memoryReturn from banishment and claim the priests daughter
for I shall never be exiled with the curse of Catullus and Propertius elegies.I made haste, preparing for a destiny forged by my own hands
this castle of serenity, soon to become an icon of my tortured pastAt dawn, I faced my foes and fears at once
breaking each spell, this sorcerer’s force came but was squashed.When at last her heart and hand were won
These darkened skies succinctly rested and its pieces – torn.-Poem by Zorlone and Dragon Blogger

Attack On The Outpost
The horrors I have seen when an Apache scalped my mate
and wore his scull cap like a gruesome hat
The soldiers were fighting to defend this outpost
The Indians were too numerous and our forces succumbedArrows soaring through the air like rain
There would be no rainbow after this storm
This ramshackle structure was our last hope
We prayed it held up against the onslaughtThen what we least expected came
A solicitation of peace was offered
It was too early for a celebration we warned
But their communication and ruse was a successThey lured out our men with promises of hope
Put down our rifles and sabers they barked
Our men were too desperate to see the truth
When we complied, we were slaughtered like sheep-Poem by Dragon Blogger
