'A Fight'

Below is a bit of EvE Poetry, written, quite badly, by me.  Apologies for the lack of proper composition heh.

'A Fight'

D-Scan shows my target,

Lone Atron drifting, drifting.

A faint hum sounds in my pod,

Engines fire the gate and I approach.

Alarm! Alarm!

A Huginn, quiet, stealthy,

Invisible.

A trap, and I have fallen.

In my pod I feel it all;

Shields fail with a flicker,

Armor sheds itself like

Layers of skin flaking away in a sandstorm.

Fire, fire,

It burns, but only in my mind.

Hull is rupturing, and I know

I am lost.

My pod seems to float,

And a soothing blue light envelopes me.

A flash, and for a moment I feel cold;

Then nothing.

I am blind,

Except for black, and the Darkness.

It passes in an instant;

I open my eyes, and I live.

A.G.
