Slashing through sands of time
The sword held high in pride
Making headway for future prime
Undoing and erasing the past’s crime
So ashamed by that wild ride
Slashing through the sands of time
Scraping away yesterday’s grime
No more need to hide
Making headway for the future prime
Cracking through that ancient climb
Passing over a continental divide
Slashing through the sands of time
Those memories have had their last chime
Its echoes have faded and died
Making headway for the future prime
To hold these new times in sublime
Venerable times can no longer misguide
Slashing through the sands of time
Making headway for the future prime...
- Title: Tear Away the Old
- Artist: Ralyle
- Description: This poem was inspired by a line I have heard man times, "Slashing through the sands of time". This one I have also submitted to a contest. I await the results of the contest still. I appreciate any input that anyone can give on this. I don't mind any harsh words you have to say. Oh, and this type of poem is called a villanelle. You might be able to figure it out from my poem but if you want detailed instructions please feel free to PM me.
