Aftermath: Week 2 Poetry 2

The armies of Plaguies, Tarentum, and Arcona go to battle with the Iron Legion and Pravus. Write a haiku on the thrill of hunting/stalking your opponents, as opposed to killing. Grading will be by all three Clan Consuls, based on creativity.

As with all events of Aftermath, the event states "Entire DJB," but is only open to Arcona, Plagueis and Tarentum.

Textual submission

They have to be near,
I hear their laboured breathing,
Excitement fills me.

sweating, senses high,
The enemy is very close.
Once more we will hunt.

Our prey is sighted,
Our attack must be very swift.
They know they are caught.

Textual submission

An enemy made
A friend has come to aid us
Together we stand

We move for vengeance
We keep stalking our pray
Together we hunt

With caution we move
With anger but also with fear
Together we stand
