Freestyle Poem for Balrog Day

Light is filling mighty halls of stone
Ruddy
A mixture of gold and blood
Harsh light with a warm colour
That burns your breath
And makes your feet
Run
Faster and faster and faster

Enfolding shadow
Scorching flame
Evil emanating in waves
Running
Running
Running

Unquenchable fire

White light
Cold light
But not harsh light
Warm and safe
And very strong

Evil blows scatter
Footsteps fall away

And the fire
Falls
And falls
And gets swallowed

In the deep.

- Eowyn of Ithilien
