A/N

Short poem I did about the Covenant ages ago. Came across it when I recovered the data from my old computer. No harm in posting I guess.

Righteous Fury

The Covenant.

They come in ships powered by anger

Reducing men and worlds alike

To the heated glass of death.

...

They expose fear and pain

And the bare futility of human endeavour.

When they strike they strike hard

Like a mighty saurian

Grinding its prey into the dust.

...

They drive to madness

Even the sturdiest of men.

They preach terror and

Shatter civilisation.

...

Psyche of ice

Rage of fire

With the boiling, piercing intent of destruction

They freeze morals

And melt all achievements.
