Bardic compositions - a duet if you will - with Neil G
@Banquozghost:
Shrivelled thing
you
twisted ice
snow-dusted
beset by creeping death
discarded from her dread embrace
now pleasuring is done
@MercurialNight: Icy floes surround my heart
Ever changing
Ever moving
As seasons change
Those that may
Escape my frozen grasp
To breathe again
@Banquozghost:
That which seems still
moves slowly
almost imperceptibly
tiny breaches in cold's grip
are eased wider
by succouring touch
@MercurialNight: Slipping ever faster from my grasp
My freedom disappears from view
I sink silently beneath
Trapped within her icy tomb
@Banquozghost:
What fire brave enough
to try her frozen hell
melt captive bonds
liberate spirits
comatose from cold?
Yet flame is bold!
@MercurialNight: A valiant heart
Brave and true
Burning with internal fire
Hot blooded creatures
To rise again
As phoenixes soaring high
@Banquozghost:
Hot blood soars
beyond the pale
of an icy rim
hungry for nought
but grim possession.
In flame is wrought a road of passion.
@MercurialNight: Seared within my soul
Burned forever in warning
Trespass not on this frozen waste
A serene beauty
Ever hiding a deadly intent
@Banquozghost:
Who says "Dare not!"
for yet I dare
my fiery will
can melt the grip
of frozen air
this my challenge
"Try me, Ice! I'm fire!"
@MercurialNight: Fire you may be!
Yet be not inflamed of pride
For with one drag of an icy finger
You shall forever be entombed
Frozen in time
@Banquozghost:
Fire drives
not pride,
and better tried
than not.
This my tomb?
By the gods
it'll be a hot one
and we'll burn together in't
@MercurialNight: Upon that pyre we shall combust
Into the heavens
Dust to dust
As phoenixes we shall rise
And gaze upon this world's demise
