IMMORTAL WAR
A Poem About Retribution in a fantasy world
********************************************************************** IMMORTAL WAR: A Poetic Rendering by Lt. Reed R. Wright, Castle Guard **********************************************************************
Attacks most heinous on us have occurred
Our soldier's bloodlust now be stirred
Immortals they may claim to be
Far and above to eternity
Still their actions they shall regret nigh
Thus we swear, we do not lie
Our army shall strike their forces hard
Harry Immortal castle, field, and yard
Send yon farmers rancid meat
Pox riddens to wash their feet
Minister Vesria attack with words
Spike the kraken to fly like a bird
Dung bombs to drop, fields to fry
Today Immortals Learn to Die
****************************************************
Above is an excerpt from my Castle Chronicles comedic gossip sheets. Most of the CC series is formatted (loosely) as a comedic news/scandal sheet set in a fantasy realm where the kraken (Spike) uses the castle moat as a urinal. We have Cpt Riley Strongarm of the Castle Guard, Lt. Reed R. Wright, Chef Cezer Sallud Jr., jester Lord Androlian with his tarnished bells and rancid peppers hat, along with various lords and ladies from the regent to the chambermaids. There are bombs made from kraken dung…, an elevator that became a mushroom farm (only the best kraken fertilizer used) … terrorist attacks on the tunnel of love … Affairs, vengeance, war, and mayhem.

After the 2nd I changed the name from Castle Chicanery to Castle Chronicles. These were mostly written by me a while back as comedic “group e-mails” to my compatriots in an on-line MMORPG. They were well received. There are quite a few of them.
