        Emerald green and flashing red
The battlefield among the dead
The hated foe so vile indeed
Plentiful as rivenweed
The foolish orks; they should have fled
The battlefield among the dead
For like the wind came Mereton
And crimson did the rivers run
Red pools by glistening rivers fed
The battlefield among the dead
With striking claw and venomous sting
The air itself did seem to sing
As tattered orks fell dry, and bled
On the battlefield among the dead  
Screams of anger filled the night
To behold a war is quite a sight
His wings of darkest fury spread
'Cross the battlefield among the dead
Armor bent and broken here
Mereton fought devoid of fear
Not to return, he remained instead
On the battlefield among the dead
Also Entitled: The Battlefield Among the Dead
A poem I did for a buddy's Eldar fanfic. His character's mentor Mereton had fallen as an Exarch of the Striking Scorpion Aspect Path. This was a poem that was spoken at his funeral.
