Music Friday! Epic Fantasy

I can write a lot but I will save the explanation for the end. In short it is a Music Prompt from The Reverie (links below). So poetry that, I hope, will be merged and elevated by the music. Rhythms change and so does the reading. Hope it comes out as envisioned.

Epic Fantasy

READ THIS FIRST!
Press start and from the first big drum sound count 4 Mississippi in a normal pace before you start reading (At around 0;19). The Italic/blue letters should fall together with a drum sound. (I hope). Sound needs to be on.

As the myth
has been written
in ancient scriptures
buried in the lands

a long time ago.

Hallows eve
its coming
once every
thousand years

when moon is crimson

Hell the womb
of a danger beast
Ready to give birth

the world trembles
in agony

Hallows eve
day of the dead
monsters, dragons
roam gloriously
free among

–==<@>==–

Distant church bells
ringing
carried across
oceans and lakes
on whistling winds

an ominous
storm is brewing
drawing in closer
tearing the skies

–==<@>==–

Rumbling earth

cracking crust
opening up
for its arrival
emerging from
flaming sea

Rising up

from the fires
taking its form
roar of mountains
erupting
crumbling at the feet
of this creature

Wings unfolding

blocking the sun
ashes falling
colouring
the lot
in shiny grey

Cries of hunger

under
thundering sky
cloaked in dust
its flapping wing
taking flight

for blood

–==<@>==–

In silence soaring
through the grey
precipitation
bearings by senses

eyes look down
slithering snake
mirrored river
its path

trailing mist

presence hidden
nearing pray
death is cometh
the end of day

a new era is born
forsaken god
devil’s child
on the prowl

–==<@>==–

Barrage of thunder
mask its howl
tempest came
to the old town

Church bell chime
feed despair
brink of demise
shutters close

city centre
makeshift graves
of the fallen
monstrosities
rotting and moaning

bolt of lightning
shooting star
exploding square
from clouds he came

Scales blackened
ferocious snarl

–==<@>==–

Glowing amber
hazardous glare
silent cries
for lifeless horror
Prophecy for seen

Bells toll
for last battle
brass blowing
the army ready
downhill
with swords drawn
final battle
upholding peace
the fight begins

–==<@>==–

Flesh shredded
from broken bones
men struggle
whipping tail
crushing teeth

Savages released
ravaging
to protect
still living
Glory honour
in afterlife

Spears straight
arrows glide
heart untouched
in gleaming shell
victory ahead

Century gone
the heart a seed
beating still
in earth’s womb
the myth rewritten

Just listen.

Written on the music from the song Bones by MsMr.

 Created after a music prompt at ‘The Reverie‘

The idea was to write a story as I done on a former music prompt, you can read that here.  It was called ‘Passion in Flames’ , and was a story written along with the music to make a whole. But the Reverie is about poetry so since the idea on Tuesday until this very moment I been reducing the story in small verses. The idea was to let the music carry the words as the words spoken get influenced by the music. I thought it was kind of epic film music and it is what inspired me to do it like this.
This has been done on my own feel and can only hope you felt the rhythm from the music as I did.
One day If I am confident enough I might do a voice over as I intended it to sound.

For now I just hope you enjoyed my try.
The Video used was so that none would get confused with the original lyrics of the song. For those who listened might find that the lyrics also inspired me in some way.

Best Wishes
