Hey,
This is the third part of my Wavelength poetry series, about (you guessed it) Quake. @SpideyFunko requested this one.

Mountain Breaker


~Scarcity27



Quiet whispers encase the earth
Underneath a tranquil shower of leaves
Ancient ruins converse in silence
Kaleidoscope of rocks she weaves
Effortless the atmosphere shifts
As if the world lay fast asleep
Not a soul around to watch
Dainty stones begin to leap
Beauty in its perfect chaos
Allure of the swaying dance
Kindle a passion, a gentle charm
Endlessly captured in a trance
And as the earth comes alive
Nobody around as she soars
Daises are her only witness
Secret meadows she adores
Her matchless power courses on
As the horizon turns deep red
Know the strength of her hands
Eternally, she’s one to dread
Tremble before her seismic waves
How she splits the ground beneath our feet
Everywhere, the earth breaks away
Every escape she renders obsolete
Are you brave enough to challenge
Regiments of earth she commands
Try as you might, you will see
How the earth moves through her hands

I wanted to take a different approach to this poem than the other two. I was inspired by how Quake can take down opponents without even hitting them, so I decided to sort of channel that into the poem. There's a sort of tranquility about her, even in the way she produces those vibrations, I could imagine her just absolutely in love with how she can manipulate the earth, and create entire rock formations on command. Even in-game, the way she effortlessly takes down all her opponents, make her a thing of beauty and a force to be reckoned with, so I really tried to convey that with this poem.

Hope you enjoyed it!

You know the drill, read the first letter of each line
And yes I put daisies in the poem because it's her name
