Video game poetry

Hey everyone,

This post is a little off topic, but I wanted to share none-the-less. As some of you know, I started my writing career with poetry. Some serious while others are lighthearted and funny. As this blog focuses more on video games and comics, I decided to share a couple video game inspired poems. Here they are.

Bouncer

A giggle
A laugh
No innocence

A shot 
A hit
Time to move

First calm
Then red
The color of anger

It lunges
It destroys
Life fades away

Was red
Now yellow
Time to continue on
 
 

Silence

 Blades glisten
Though covered in shadow
Birds chirp in the distance

Voices heard
a dull roar
Take to the roof

Breathing heavy
Must keep moving
Building to building

Target found
Too many people
Stalk and wait

Night falls
Mist rolls in
Darkness provides cover

Seconds pass
Target reacquired
Slip in quietly

Death approaches
Hold him down
Screams are muffled

Blades release
Life slips away
Requiescat in Pace
