Literature Text

Feel the might of the berserk
I'm battle made masterwork
And any strike that you land
Is another blow that I can shirk

Don't need no shields
Just a weapon in each hand
Fighting this war like
Each day is my last stand

My axe is of flying fury
I am more than the judge and jury
An executioner of man
Making blood run like mercury

My blade will feast on you
By the time that I am through
The mighty roaring beast
A one man wrecking crew

I'm a warrior master
Of control through disaster
Like Barbarian law says
Live fast or die faster

Feel the rage; break the cage
Another battle I will wage
Bringing fight after fight
And I don't need to be a sage
To know I'll prob'ly die young
Yet the thought has only stung
If I imagine that I'll be
The song bards never sung
My first in a series of poems inspired by the classes of D&D. The idea came to me on a whim, and sounded fun, so I went with it.

I imagine Viking berserkers chanting this. XD
