Dark damp dory glides on crimson ewe
Swelling through the azuline blue seas
Vivid Golden Fleece wafting over the helm
Orion overturns the blood red Sacred Heart
Agamemnon Sprawls with a golden grin
Blue speckled black nightingales scream
Bloody shrieks to the dishonored gold veil
Light blue robed nuns hum Hail Mary
Death’s Raven circles sol’s dimming gold rays
Eerie bloody woods await the dank dory
Agamemnon creeps as the sieved liquid bleeds
Noble golden king inherited the sin
Bearing the murderous guilt of his father
Clytemnestra left plotting a blue bitter demise

This reads like a war drum. The lines throb nicely with images and motion. Each feels like a separate sentence demanding it own attention, yet all part of the drum.
well done,
Tom B.

Each line is a separate sentence, each pulls its
weight in focus and colour. I like how you've
managed a story, shades and alliteration all showcased
within brevity. Blue
