Blade of honor: Beastmaster

The time has come 1

we stand face to snout2

Alpha vs. alpha3

Steel and fang4

though neither moves5

both know this is not right6

As cautions circle7

ever tightens the ropes8

those strangling chains9

to our actions entwined 10

by a fate we cannot forsee11

yet cannot forsake12

everything has come to this moment13

which we did not want14

" As we are engaged in measure15

Between man and beast16

thought not of common kin17

He leaps from the bush18

our prey in common19

The bear 20

a mass of mean21

a mass of muscle22

fights without honor23

without cunning24

he knows not he is overmatched25

The wolf 26

single and small27

Fights with courage28

and grace29

he knows yet fights still30

The man31

Alone among beast32

out cast by his kind33

deals death accordingly.34

Fang and claw35

Tooth and Nail36

Blood and braid37

all are shed this day38

After the battle39

alone stand man and wolf40

both share in the kill41

both are brothers42

for the have shed43

and shared blood this day44

this day of death and rebirth45

rebirth and redemption46

redemption and resolution47

this day of honor and bond48

As time passed49

our pack grew50

prospered51

thrived52

But I became evermore restless53

all so more confused54

and devestated by my dreams55

"Oh how I envy you56

majestic beast of the land57

my brother in blood58

how you not pity59

yourself of the things gone past 60

peaceful is your sleep61

dreams only torture62

my soul upon flaming rack63

my cries left unheard"64

as a bolt65

of lightning66

strikes the mind67

I am clear68

the man can dream.......the beast has no need69

The man want more.......The beast wants now70

I roar71

"I am a Man NOt a beast"72

AWWWWWHOOOOOOOOooooooo73

the pack agrees74

I bid farewel75

to my brothers76

of the forest77

begining my journey78

through the jungles of man79

Those who made me believe I was a beast80

Those who made me believe I was not a Man81

Those who took away my dreams82

Those who replaced them with night mares83

"You are gonna pay"84
