This is a magnificent addition to the Beowulf legend. Truly fine storytelling. You really wrote this elegantly and an in grand mythical style. This had me riveted to the screen as I read. I love ancient myth and this is a fine example of a modern writer expanding on a mythical theme.

The shock of discovering you killed your own. That is a horrible way to find out. I like how you wove this tale.

This is an awesomely told tale my friend. You have the story tellers gift for taking an ancient story and breathing into it a fresh perspective that is so invigorating to read. You engage the reader with suspense and then that explosive ending. I too thought of Oedipus when that ending came. A worthy addition to the myth.

Hi Curt. I know I left a review for this poem on WC, but the message is so important, I’m glad you shared it here too.
The imagery on this piece is haunting- The yellow scream is so vivid, almost synesthetic image that makes human atrocity feel terrifyingly alive.
The way sound, color, and darkness intertwine lingers long after reading.

I do remember this. this line always gets me “He’s obsessed with her death, obsessed with her blood, obsessed with her demise,”
Good piece.
