Diamond Dust Devils

Like swirling winds, across the land
We'll strip away everything that stands
Show no mercy, to those we find
Leave their headless corpse to remind
Like ravaging wolves with gnawing teeth
Our gleaning swords, this day will feast!
Come! Shake your diamond shields
War has come, we will not yield!
Raise your cup and loudly cheer
The warrior's death you'll face is here

Honor our Gods, slice deep your chest
Draw first blood, from your flesh
Let it flow,staining arms and face
Charge into battle with this blood embraced
This warrior's pledge,accept your death
A bloody realm, your final quest
We'll meet again where spirits confide
Dragons are slayed and swords collide

wow, it has a gothic feel to it and makes me think of that movie about the 300 Spartans!! Great writing for the contest, Frederic.
