| A Tragic End
A hero destined for great things He was believed he would become king Three witches made that Fantasy seem real All the lies and betrayals played out There was not a single doubt That his fate would of ended the way it did The tragic tale of how a glorious hero Could be so corrupt, so far into his inner-sanctum. The hero Macbeth; this is his tale
The great hero, who started out as a mere soldier Became an icon for many, an enemy for others He soon became an idol A role-model for the citizens of the kingdom. He rose the ranks of a simple soldier to the greatest General that Scotland had ever seen His bravery was so immense He displayed such valor Strength was one of his greatest attributes Such qualities made him more then ready It made it more then capable of being the one title that everybody wanted to be Macbeth became the Thane Of Cawdor
The adventures he had They were spoken in legends, myths maybe
`His ego was one to speak about His self-righteous ego It evidently drove him into insanity And that alone would send him on a path A path full of nothing, but corruption
A once glorious warrior A previously admired hero Lied to by the liars Persuaded by the convincers A series of prophecies that had to be fulfilled Each greater then the last But all leading to one unavoidable cause The death of Macbeth
Time grew near, his fate almost to its end The once thane of Cawdor now awaited for his end to come His lies, and betrayals finally caught up to him An unseeingly fate that could come to an end At any minute His eyes could fortell what was going to occur One warrior One very determined man His life was hell, cause of macbeth Every moment that passed, this man was in a living nightmare Every time he thought of his family The tragic tales of how Macbeth murdered them It became his own
The time is ending His fate coming to a close Macbeth counts the moments until his life comes to a sudden end One man will make sure that happens A man who has his revenge in mind A perfect plan To kill the one that took everything from him Every minute that passes He gets his plan set More and more
Oh at last They both meet Face to face Man to man Both of them facing each other On opposite sides Macbeth and Macduff They face off in a daring collison With swords in hand Ready to finish what should have been ended A long time ago Now it is the time They settle a long grudge
Swing, swing swing The air ripped by the screeching sounds of blades Hitting against each other Over and over again They come to an even match Neither of them letting up They both have a killing mind But then a mircle occurs Macbeth suddenly stops
The fight is put to an end His end is nearing The time bomb starts its final moments
Tick tock Tick tock Tick tock
The ticking of Macbeth’s final moments They near As the man Refusing to run away
Macduff Completely confused And yet He isn’t The words spoken From Macbeth’s mouth Is soothing No, more like comforting It is now time for the betrayer to meet his final moments
Macduff grips his sword tightly His fingers squeezing the hilt tightly Anger takes over His conscious is no longer there Only the thought of revenge is in mind One moment until it comes
Stab stab stab The blade impales Macbeth’s heart A crimson liquid flows out to the cold, hard ground The sounds of gushing organs began to sound off His body falls hard to the ground In the puddle of crimson One final moment The final seconds of his life A fitting end to a once glorious hero
Macbeth He lies on the floor Motionless Forever alone, and never to rise again

| Wait I thought Macbeth was a king (unless this is a different version of it, then it would be)? Anyway, I thought that was brilliant, although I got so used to reading poems that rhyme that it fel ever so weird to read one that doesn't need rhyming. Brilliant job there Grimmjow ;D. | |

Maybe he became the king, Ugh, I saw a rock version of it was sometimes hard to hear what the heck they were saying and i sorta was rather unwell at the end of it. lol Well i wrote this based upon the actual play that William Shakespere wrote. So in fact, Macbeth wasnt king from start, but instead he was driven into insanity from the three witches and they made him abbandon his former self and become a shallow shell of a man, and about his selfish desires. Which at first, wasn't a bad turn on his part. However, as he went deeper into his own darkness, Macbeth soon became clouded by his own visions, or ambitions that he had, and evidently he came to death..
Well something like that anyway | |

| It goes about that he becomes the thane of cawdore, and after meeting the witches and hearing their prophecies, he thinks it insane, but then they begin to take hold of him, especially after telling his wife who becomes power crazy almost instantly, and drives him to kill the king when the king sleeps in his keep (after a celebration on his becoming thane). He wipes the blood on the king's guards after killing them (cant remember if he kills them or if they are sleeping. they turn out dead either way ). in the morning it is found, and the guards are put as the cause and eventually he becomes king (kills a few others, and kills the entire family of his friend who is another thane. prince flees to england). Eventually the one who's family he killed (person A) and the prince (person B) return with an army from england and hide in the trees, each carrying part of a tree to mask their army's numbers. (The forest doth come to Dunstinane) He sees this and freaks out a bit, but was told that no man of woman born could kill him (by witches), so calms down. during the fight, person A duels him and, after a while, Macbeth tells of the "no man of woman born" thing, but person A replies that his mother died in labor (or smething like that), and so technically he wasnt born by his mother, after which he decapitates Macbeth and carries his head back to Person B and the general (the general's son was also killed by Macbeth, did i forget to say that?). Person B takes the throne, saying the "evil tyrant is dead" and that "all shall now be lords" and it ends. there's my brief summary of Shakespeare's Tragedy of Macbeth | |
