Description I cannot win
This game you dare to play
I cannot run
To grab the lion's mane
I shall leave you
To your task
Wishing that you should last

Die, die, die
That is your lie
That I should
Die, die, die
Don't bother with your lie
For it is you who will
Die, die, die

And there do I stand
Withdrawing me hand
Seeing you fall
Fall, fall off the ledge
Crashing to the rocks
Hidden 'neath the waves

I actually like the ryhthym and repetition in this poem, when I read it aloud it seems to flow quite well and the die die die is just fun to say... or is that just me???

Nah. "Die" is fun to say. Especially if you're holding a knife, dagger, sword, or any sharp object

Oh good, I'm glad it's not just me, I might sound like some psycho if I were all alone

It 'tis nice. But it doesn't flow as well as some of your other poems do. I still like it, though.

Probably doesn't flow as well since it was not written to be a single poem.
