The Harbinger of Doom

The Harbinger of Doom

I am become like unto a pariah. My coming bears tidings of bad things... Something wicked this way comes and thy name is...
I am a cursed soul.

Be warned all ye who see the light of my eyes for I am the shadow of dark times, the avante garde of destruction and the harbinger of eradication. To hear my voice is to be singled out and to know thy doom is nigh. My work has no joy for I am the annihilator of all things.

Yet I am trapped in this body and lifelessly plod through the fields swinging my scythe to and fro reaping all that has been sown.

I hate what I have become yet I am powerless to change it. All things must pass and I am that which enables the passing. Ripe fruit and vegetables turn brown and wither in my wake and I am scorned by all who I meet.

Forgive me for I cannot stop this, I haven't the ability to change it and I know no sympathy is forthcoming.

But I must do what I was created to do.

Empathy for the Harbinger

LadyPeninhand In the fading ring of thy words, doth sound a faint echo from eons long past. Hark! Is that the long forgotten voice of Monty Python?...."O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayest blow thy enemies to tiny bits in thy mercy." As first victim of thy deadly swipe, I lie now, my right hand lifeless, and without 'pen'. If not for thy doom, I would follow thee to thy destiny. Mine eyes, a'shine with n'ere a flicker of the life which once existed within me, follow thy path, observing the swath of destruction in thy leaving. A sigh escapes my lips... a sigh of regret, a regret as yet unknown... "Yes, you must give us all a good spanking!"

Vile

You are a vile and evil creature. I shall devote the rest of life, my very being to destroying everything you have become. You are the captian of the skiff on the river Styx leading us to oblivion. I will not let this become our reality. Torment us no more! ;)
