Last Thoughts of a Dying Warrior

His mind lay prey to mumbled threats within,
drawn to perch upon a twig-thin edge 
slung between a gauze of blatant dreams.
Like some homeless bird come to make a nest,
it yanked discarded bits of skin and hair,
from bins of vain memory's hoard, 
then joined to form a place where 
a brain might rest and preen.
Once settled,

The Valkyrie Bill

The woman who stands before you,
She sheds her armor,
To shall her honesty,
The truthfulness of her heart.
Her pure of heart.
She takes charge.
She never backs down.
She let's them see exactly who she is.
She leaves it all out there,
On the ground for all to see.
She's a hero.
She's a savior.
Yet, she only sees herself,
As a simple woman who,
Supports her

The Broken Valkyrie

"The Broken Valkyrie"



when 
the artificial 
sun 
replaced 
true Light,
revolution 
was a forgotten 
Valkyrie, 
Liberty 
had been 
put to bed
broken whore 
of Babylon
no longer holding
the torch for anyone;

women and men 
grew to love 
their servitude,
complacency 
skewered their fever,
it, like a contagion spread
a worldly blanket over all,
viral dreams of revolution
ceased; 

nothing bloomed
under that 
artificial sun,
the colour grey
grew

Valkyrie

Sings her unearthly endless songs
songs without words, like the lullaby of the wind
endlessly repeating the same note
repeating, something exquisitely intangible
like the echo of an echo
...Or the flapping of an angel

Valkyrie

None to comfort none to save
Broken splendid total naïve
Battle worn and leather bound
Gasping groaning final sound
Mixing rapid blasted fine
Frontline wasted shattered mind
Fusing cordite steady burn
Starflight wonder past return

Valkyrie

VALKYRIE

Oh, say you my love
Whom rides the skies on wing steed
On through eternal twilight
Keeper of dead gods
Holy redeemed warrior
As sword Valkyrie reigns

Valkyrie

oh valkyrie of wings and feather,
line by careful line
axe by axe
beautiful woman.

The heavens are your home;
you walk upon the stars,
unburdened by expectations
duty
opinions.

Beauty in the midst of carnage
valkyrie in the midst of battle
Fearsome angels. Monstrous. Lovely.

oh valkyrie of curves and edges:
sharpness. Tempered steel
forged by fires of Hel.

Your body is yours alone,
no man would dare tell you

The Valkyrie

In days of yore, when Vikings vigorously reigned
Beauty of the Valkyrie, vixen of intoxicating dreams
The maidens chose a paladin who departed and gained
entrance into Valhalla, they were Odin's esteemed

Beauty of the Valkyrie, vixen of intoxicating dreams
Goddess to serve her warrior - immortally embraced
Entrance into Valhalla, they were Odin's esteemed
Under her soft touch, favored men -

Valkyrie Three

This female three
Of Norse myth
Bring their chosen ones
To be with
 
The fallen ones
In the afterlife hall of the slain
Where in Valhalla
They will remain
 
These daughters of royalty
With their ravens so black
To be with their warriors
Who can't go back
 
These einherjar
Bravely, in battle died
Where they feast on the Saehrimnir 
Viking pride
 
Herja, Svipul
Herfjotor, the three
Attested to
