Hellish un-vigour
Blasted hell.
Spare me from this Heavenblight
this, this enfeebling poison from within
Curses and vengeful thoughts but little
While my clipped left arm wing
hugs my side trying to stem the pain
Not pain from a great wound
But pain from hellfire
Blasted hellfire.
It runs through my chest
Clawing around my heart.
I scratch the skin surface to keep the tremors away.
Blast-
Ah, that was not so good
Try to focus
Try to become calm.
Blasted heart beats with all the force of War's hellforges.
If only I was well enough to war myself
but the cold-blood pain ruins my thoughts.
What once beat in time with my bones
now beats to its drum.
Until finally,
the engine slows,
in sleep
Hell freezes over,
and I,
I, regain my strength.

I was trying to make it slow down near the end, to mimic my heart slowing down and the curses dying.

Viddax,
Always a pleasure to read. check *grat on L7.
"While me clipped left arm wing

The *me makes sense because I used to always use that a lot when talking. "who the fucks been poaching me bottles of beer" kind of thing or
"me Ma has me grounded but I'll sneak out the window about seven"
if it's not a typo I reckon you should change the 'my under it just to keep the in same voice which would fit with the blastings.
good stuff man!
