What makes a War Cry
#WritcoPoemPrompt38


Tarry not towards the end,
Await and appreciate,
As you are now,
Your sorrow and your joy
A mixture of sweat,
Makes the sweet-sour of success.

Hold tight the fort,
Scream above the howl,
Let out your fierce spirit,
Cry! be heard on the cliffs.

Your wail, a message for help
Clang the call bell;
On errand goes a bird!
The whales ready to dine
your flesh, a fare for the swine!
Darkness comes with doom
no help! no solace!
