7 Ballads Of The Fall: The Stranded Samurai ' Fame Falls In The Shades ' Poem by Danny The Dreamer Boyd

7 Ballads Of The Fall: The Stranded Samurai ' Fame Falls In The Shades '



The smell of war is in the air;
A fight for a long forgotten legacy.
The stink of fear and in despair,
These splendid swordsmen stand, and in jeopardy.

'We are the end of an era! ' quotes one.
'We stood together back to back;
Yet now with an aura of shadows and no sun,
This far feral fame, seems nothing more but a crack! '

'A wise man knows when to walk away;
Wise enough to recognize that, life itself is a prize!
Glory can be attained but yet another day;
Lead us out of harm's way, no need for any goodbyes.'

He drew his breath in, and held his head high:
Stared at his grand army and screamed 'Remember!
Shame is nearby, and fame flies for us for aye;
We always walked for miles, on the fields of danger! '

Then he stabbed the guts back in their hearts,
'Circle the wagons, today we stand our ground! '
Some bricks of bravery and sacrifices to impart,
To the steel soldiers, and a history lost and found.

He beat his breast in his cruel conquest:
For they blindly in the shades did fight.
The many men and their souls a bequest,
Around his neck, as the arrows ate the light.

He watched them as they all fell down, and with a grin all alone,
Still fought far more for renown, till all what's left of him is none.
Hence, vain valor, so for Pride not to shawl!
And that's the Last One of the 7 Deadly Reasons To Fall.
