There are days where I can hash out four poems in a row that I am really pleased with, and then there are weeks I can’t seem to write anything I like or deem worthy of keeping. It can sometimes be frustrating writing for the necessity of the class, when your muse is off on vacation and you’re stuck at a computer, with a blank page and uninspired mind. I have always loved writing poetry on my own and enjoy reading it. I haven’t felt very inspired lately, but this is one of my latest poems that I wrote, just for fun. It is the complete opposite direction of what I usually write and isn’t polished. It needs a lot of revising and some parts are very cliché as of now (especially the last line). Nevertheless, I thought I would share it for all the gamers. I was inspired when playing with my friend. :)
A piece of my heart flickers then
fades,
A flawed choice of ‘jack of all
trades’,
Asphyxiated through toxic streams
of light,
‘Target locked’ through his panoramic
sight.
Armor piercing stacked; ignoring my
defense,
Critical hits; no match for my
offense,
Mana depleted; now I’m left with a
decision,
Sparks generated from the force of
our collision.
Fleeing fails; I am petrified,
My chance of escape brutally
denied,
My cooldown resets; with just
seconds to spare
Just as Nate Appears, out of thin
air.
Using my ultimate to finish this
round,
Nate goes in for the kill-steal and
vanishes without a sound.
