Poem to Kick Off National Poetry Month

Black & Green
Shards of eternity embedded in their flesh —
they kept fighting —
no one to stop them.

Note on Black & Green: Woke up from a dream on March 10, 2013 where two immortal beings were fighting over space and time. They looked human, sort of, but weren’t. As they fought through the blackness of space they grabbed bits of eternity, eerie green shards which they had broken into long, jagged pieces that they used to stab each other with. And no one could stop them. They were eternal and they would be fighting forever.
