War Dance

Unbridled

Ebb and flow

Of Chaos and Order

 

Primal

Power plays of passion

And feats of endurance

Among the rising tide

Anger and joy in unison

 

Fighting

For each inch of ground

Sacred space owned by none

Owned by all

And shared

 

Battlefield

A killing field

Where ego dies

I die

You die

We die together

While finding life

In the common ground

Of all is none

All is one

 

Sweat

Blood

Tears

Frenzy

 

The roar of battle

The calm of the storm

The embrace of life

In eternal moments

Where war is peace

And peace is war

 

One falls

All fall

One rises

All rise

Safety and strength in numbers

And our number is one

 

And fury breeds love

And rage brings release

And on the edge

Of the thin red line

We walk

We dance

We sing

We live

 

And we are
