Elliot's Battlefield

April 15, 2015
By Anonymous

Apples grow in endless night
Clothe yourself in apathy
Use wrath as your weapon
Charge onward, for wolves smell blood
Brittle defences crack

Silent rain on battlefield
Robots deprived of passion
Fight their worn enemy
Wolves laugh in dark orchards as they
Leave me in crossfire

Trapped in an unfading tale
Tired of being a pawn
I create a puppet
A tool for escaping me
Yet façades always fade

The main character in "Inventing Elliot" by Granham Gardener is my inspiration for this piece. I wanted to show the turmoil he faced as I visualized it.
