Falling into a shaft during an evil strike. Aspiring to scream, you lose your voice. when darkness and abhorrence spike. When adverse facts sway your choice, Aspiring to scream, you lose your voice. A halt to all hopes for life and renewal When adverse facts sway your choice As you fight acutely but your shot is futile. A halt to all hopes for life and renewal There is no pledge to attempt to survive. As you fight acutely, but your shot is futile. And you will be the first to escape alive. There is no pledge to attempt to survive. You bear it shut your eyes, set for death. And you will be the first to escape, alive. A swift jolt hauls you to rivers of Lethe. You bear it shut your eyes, set for death. When darkness and abhorrence spike. A swift jolt hauls you to rivers of Lethe. Falling into a shaft during an evil strike.

Hope is a great motivator when facing adversity. Thoughts well conveyed in this difficult to execute form.

Both the power of hope and the frustration the absence of hope cause are beautifully delineated. As ever, a great writing, Lasaad !

Wow, the historic river, the poetry and it's dark nature, Yes one would need 'The Power Of Hope' Lasaad. The Pantoum form fits the mindset so well here. Love it.
