Ancient Evil…
The frozen face of a still white moon
Hung against the starless sky
Remembering Zolon crouched below
His hand clenched on ancient evil
Where men were swallowed
Bones crushed by ice white teeth…
Very nice!

A poem can compress the story of ages just in a few words, that is the beauty of this genre. Superbly penned!

You have to think a bit harder with poems to get only the words you need and to choose the most effective ones. That makes it an extra challenge.
