WAR BANNERS

by Modar Neznanich

 

The pennant screams

Reaching upon my senses

Vert coupled with Or

Wings in flight

Displayed upon my mind

In counterchanging positions

Clashing now with a series

Of Gules-ish bands

Sinisterly lurking

Across a field of Argent

Blurring back and forth 'til

The victor swirls skyward

Leaving the defeated

Trampled in the dust.
