Subject: Create a poem from Halo dialogue

Think before you post

I was thinking about it in my English class, where we were commissioned to write a poem.

Your poet Elliot was wrong
THIS is the way the world ends
There has been much talk
And I have listened
Through rock and mettle and time
Your message repeats; "Regret, regret, regret"
There has been much talk
Now you shall listen
Prophets offer you salvation from a doomed existence
You will find no salvation here
Just dust and echoes
A monument to all your sins.


Lets see yours

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

I don't know enough Halo lines to do that.

"Concise and devoid of elegance...what I have come to expect from human communication"-Endless Summer

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

Didact's Reprisal

Mendicant Bias
Beggar after knowledge
Machine and nerve with its mind concluded
Did you think me defeated?

You will find no salvation on this ring
Lies for the weak!
Beacons for the deluded!
This slander offends All that walk the path
Clear evidence of treachery long hidden

The weight of your heresy will stay your feet
No enemy has ever withstood our might
Not even the Flood can stop it
Its divine wind will rush through the stars

Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time None of you will be left behind

Wanted to write one about the Great Journey. Most of these lines are from Halo 2.

Darkened skies
Lashing fire
To the great beyond
To bring ruin to us all

Ask the Oracle
How thy would ruin us
About Halo
And what happened to the Forerunners

Truth, Mercy, Regret
Our prophets are false!
Three Prophet Hierarchs
Must be silenced
