I am Spartan and surrounded
I wonder how many enemies I'm facing
I hear the screams of a fallen Brute
I see another's hammer gliding through the air
I am Spartan and surrounded
I pretend I'm not shaken by the fight I just won
I feel my heart pounding in my chest
I touch the back of my head to be sure she's still there
I worry as a pair of hunters round the bend
I cry out as I dive away from the bright green burst
I am Spartan and surrounded
I understand this won't be easy
I say to her that I'm ready
I dream of finishing this fight
I try to loop around the remaining one
I hope the shot will connect
I am Spartan and surrounded
I wonder how many enemies I'm facing
I hear the screams of a fallen Brute
I see another's hammer gliding through the air
I am Spartan and surrounded
I pretend I'm not shaken by the fight I just won
I feel my heart pounding in my chest
I touch the back of my head to be sure she's still there
I worry as a pair of hunters round the bend
I cry out as I dive away from the bright green burst
I am Spartan and surrounded
I understand this won't be easy
I say to her that I'm ready
I dream of finishing this fight
I try to loop around the remaining one
I hope the shot will connect
I am Spartan and surrounded

I love how you repeat I am Spartan and surrounded. It gives the poem an intensity that reverberates.
I agree with Sarah...that last line brings it all together..surrounded yet not ready to give up. That should be the case always.Very nice.
I love the resounding 'I am Spartan and surrounded', especially in the first and last line. This shows true indentity and it intensifies the situation. Great job!
