Drums beating
Swords sweating
Emperors screaming
Their might
When I write
Wars abound,
in the skies
Hurricane seas,
bruising and high
Destroying all,
but my sight
When I write
Fires cursing
million years
Humanity in
crocodile tears
I may wrong
Or be right
When I write
Moonlight darkens
every hour
Sun is ready
to devour
Divinity protects
in halo bright
When I write
Mind and heart
Love and lust
Faith and trust
Wind and gust
In constant fight
When I write
I broke my pen
light years away
I ran, I ran
from thoughts insane
baring soul, from inside
When I write
If ever!

Powerful. And definitely added to by the marvellous image. I have to wonder what goes on in your head, sometimes … I can’t grasp the concept of how a man’s ideas keep bursting out in this way. What makes someone able to put his down so as to be able to be understood by others ? Why can’t we all ?! [Rhetorical …]

Simon, many broken pens were favourites, just casualties of slightly wild imagination and emotions π
