Tale of the Heike parody

rin

Triceratops nose horn
Cracked volcanic earth available

Magma flowing moon color
Representing the buttocks of the earth splitting in two

The money I bought you for will never come back
Just like a moment in the song of the night

The weakest position lasts longer
But the Berlin Wall will fall one day

    As I read this poem, I thought I understood it until I got to the last line that I had to read the authors note that helped considerably. Thank you so much. This was a marvelous poem written in puzzle format.

      I thought that name (Heike) sounded familiar. Must read up on them again.And indeed the Berlin Wall fell one day, I was watching it on live TV as a young university student. Good stuff, rin.

        Could be prophetic.
        Nice imagery, drowning in their own crap.
        The beast you speak of lived where?
        Pride comes before a fall..and the meek inherits it all.
        So they say.

          I see hope in your words!
