Standing Watered Ground---Sentinel Contest

Standing Watered Ground
                          Silence Within My Sound  "Sentinel"




        In the midst of oceanic chaos and madness
            The shores cornerstone anchors in pain
                Elemental forces assaulting in frigorific air
                    An amphibious blitzkrieg, a coup de main
 
            Proud, stoic tower of light standing strong 
                Within the core of this cyclonic devastation
                    Whipping winded white water warrior waves
                        Surrounded lone structure of land starvation

                Tidal waves of torment fill watered down walls
                    Gasping for air these breathing blocks may drown
                        Anxious skies await to bleach newly broken blocks
                            However this man made structure stands its ground
