The Broken Warrior

Another bloody day draws to a close,

a sad one to say the least...

the rumbling thunder overhead,

does nothing to disturb...

the slain motionless beast.

Like a broken warrior,

it lies splayed,

it's ghastly wounds

fresh and decayed

still breathing...

still bleeding...

still weeping...

from the thorough beating.

A heroic battle,

it had fought,

all in vain...

for the war was lost.

Eternal darkness, to end the pain...

swept over the creature

its eyes rolled up...

peaceful sepulchre...

[Alas, the evil SuboK... prevails]
