The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

(As seen from each side)

[Terran]

Bullet casings hit the ground

Screams of pain from all around

The blitz fills your senses

As the Zerg break your defences

Boom, the Seige Tanks fire ahead

Bang, A Wraith knocks one dead

 

[Zerg]

Rush rush for the Overmind

The swarm will destroy all of human kind

Let them cling to their pitiful lives

We are the true evolution, all else are lies

They flee they flee but what's this?

Protoss on the horizon to stop this

 

[Protoss]

By Adun's will, we must defeat

the zerg. None shall still stand on their feet

Feel the plasma shield block their futile attacks

while the Carrier's let out interceptor behind our backs.

Ha they flee, we win by Adun's might

But alas, there's not much left after this strife...

I took the liberty of editing it to replace the angled brackets (which were being read as html code) with square ones.

 

Having watched my boys and their friends play Starcraft, and Brood Wars, I can appreciate this. You really gave an authentic voice to the action. :)

Cute... Having played Starcraft myself (Indeed, having made some single-player scenarios so that I could experiment with the triggers and such) I appreciate this one. I would've thought from the title, though, that you would have at least mentioned some of the individual characters such as Kerrigan and Raynor... And perhaps Tassadar or Zeratul as well.

 

Anyway, taking the poem for what it is... I found that the meter bothered me at a few points. For the sake of an example:

 

"the zerg. None shall still stand on their feet"

 

could read something like

 

"the zerg. Let none stay on their feet."

 

I think that would flow better... But it's entirely up to you.

 

Just my two minerals worth.
