Genre: Poetry
Summary: I wrote this drabble/sonnet for the open_on_sunday challenge, "Wall". It is part of the Truceverse.
A will run wild, bright William, bloody-mouthed,
his back against the wall, weapons to hand,
boots, fists and fangs his will wreck. Hear him howl
his laughter at the dark, this monstrous man.
His soul a millstone, walled about with grief,
the melancholy seraph makes amends.
He schools his harsh will, Liam, turns a leaf,
watches the years go by with empty hands.
A blighted tree, she still can weep. To curse
will satisfy her better. Willow snarls
and blasts the walls, breaks stone. Bars burst.
Surrendering to vengeance raises hell.
Three wills can mend or break the world. Release,
defend the walls, forgive, and be at peace.
