Our BattleA Poem by John Alexander McFadyenGood and evil! [Experimenting with rhyming patterns] Again I am indebted to Richard for his observations and suggestions.Our Battle
Oh brutal Prince of Darkness you have slayed so many sinful souls from this earths plain. Poor pilgrims who upon your path have strayed, to never see those heavenly gates again.
And still you prowl the planet unopposed the whys and wherefores our Lord only knows. And of your terror feats we must beware and take up arms and fight; we must prepare.
For strength in battle we must find alone, God will not send his angels to defend, thus on his mercy we cannot depend, it's us and us alone who must atone.
And when the war is over we will find that the strength we need lies within our kind, and this we simply need to understand, that man must live and die by his own hand.
