Blows landed
hatred evident
the enemy is attacked
by a vicious foe
warrior and enemy
walk away wounded
and I am both

Very powerful for short a short piece. Succinct. There is a lot of food for thought in those few words.

The last two lines make the poem amazing.

An excellant take on what I would say is a hard prompt. I love how you managed to cut out all the small connecting words. Very descriptive. Good luck in the contest.
