Literature Text

The Queen is gone
Physically present
Mentally lost
What has become of her highness?

Hungry
The hunger for power is unquenchable
Her actions unthinkable
Could even immortality suffice this gluttony?

Zeal
A grand kingdom for the Enlightened
Queen Zeal
Was she not once a benevolent ruler?

Lavos
The power of this demon is too grand
But the power is enticing
Does she know she is being used?

Corruption
She was once a loving ruler
Could anything bring her back from this twisted mindset?
Critique encouraged (despite my lack of membership).


An English Composition II assignment called for me to write a poem. I eventually got around to it, but not until after I wasted a day and a half of my freetime playing Chrono Trigger and downloading the entire sountrack, becoming particularly fond of the deep, moody music present in the Dark Ages (12,000 B.C.)

This resulted in me mutilating the expectations of English poetry with the blank verse, free meter disaster you see here. Not to worry, though, as I copied Akira Toriyama's art style for the second time in order to make a fancy picture that will hopefully distract from my horrid writing.

Critique, please? (On the writing!)
