Normark's Environmental Epic
So, considering how long is been, seven lines doesn't seem like a lot, but Norse Poetry isn't something that my brain doesn't wrap around very well. In payment for his work on the Keltian Express rail cars and engines I promised him an epic. This here is a salute to Normark's environmentalism, and highlighed Einhorns chasing away of pollution!
Sky grows dark, See the clouds || Sacred hills and Rivers ho!
Lakes of slime, Land of soot || Like a wave of ash Filth takes hold
People discard, Partake in filth || Petulant and greedy Callous and hard
Einhorn rises, Evil shudders || Environmental hero Champion of light!
he Routs the sinners, Rife with trash || Returns the pastures to Honest hands
Green returns Gardens bloom || Gallons of pestilence Tossed to the wind
Now its clean, a Nation of peace || Normark the green, Bastion of life!

Well, if you divide the lines in the middle and then group them like 4,4,4,2 lines in a stanza, you get quite classical sonnet

I found the alliteration more difficult than anything.

Re: Normark's Environmental Epic
LOL That is boss, I shall add it to the House of Einhorn's possessions. But Pawel is right, generally speaking it is a rather classical-style poem. No doubt some performance art students at the University of Normark will wish to create a play based upon it . One standing on a ladder tossing soot everywhere while glycerin with green pigment is oozed on random things. Then an actor in replicas of my royal robes comes out with a hammer and begins smiting "polluting business owners". Of course it isn't complete without a bunch of people sort of tiptoe dancing out in green spandex covered in plastic flowers clamoring around the actor playing me with the actor rising up...........why am I not teaching performance art at a Uni....

I like how you used "LOL That is boss" in the same paragraph as "generally speaking it is a rather classical-stype poem."Einhorn wrote:LOL That is boss, I shall add it to the House of Einhorn's possessions.
