It started as a hobby
It started as a game
Everyone wanted a piece
of glory, honor and fame
They came from miles around
Just to look around
The arena was stained red,
and bone pieces littered the ground.
Rain
Blood rain
Blood battle
Death match.
Within the cages lurking,
A creature does now prowl.
Awaiting its next challenger
It lets out a gruesome howl.
Built like a man its secret lies
In bones made of titanium
An android monster hell-bent
On smashing in your cranium.
Rain
Blood Rain
Blood Battle
Death’s Match.
Soon the number piled up
With corpses left and right
And still the spectators came
to watch each epic fight
Soon the sponsors began to worry
If the creature was too strong.
They knew that people might get bored
If the battles took too long.
Rain
Blood Rain
Blood Battle
No Catch.
So glory and fame became a new religion
The sponsors wrote a book
To beat this monster was immediate heaven
And soon the world was hooked
Not one man among them wanted to go to hell
So many came each night
And each night many fell
One after another heard death’s knell.
Rain
Blood Rain
Death Match
No Catch.
Rain
Insane
Blood Rain
Death’s catch.
Now all are dead who would challenge the beast
Now all are majorly deceased
The sign still burns brightly
Inviting the dead in.
Within this cavernous chamber
Now remains their sin.
To think they could out battle
A creature made of fear
It lurks inside still waiting
For a fool to draw near.
The Android Monster ticks
Promising Eternity Now
Glorified in a moment
By blood and guts somehow.
Imaginative — almost a kind of speculative poetry!
Honestly, I just had a guitar riff going through my head. Was going for metal
