Goirias of living spear Gae Bolg
Who hearing fear careers toward it
Who runs ahead a phalanx, defiant
Those whom it strikes die, spiked
Splices poison-spiced, scorpions diced
Delights downkneeing uprights, bending pridefuls
Wrenching itself free a victim sans human aid, insatiable
Sailing baleful naked breast next aimed for, mail-scorning
Ranked highest of prided armoury’s axeful aisles
Spinedtoothed gore-glorying, rips raw hide shields boring
Hewn steel spewn from stars distant, comet-carted Mars rocks.
