E/N: Hey everyone! After all the regular ficlets I've put up here on ff.net, something completely different. We had an assignment in Art Class where we had to go see a movie (guess which one I went to see) and do something creative afterwards that has to do with the movie (i.e. painting, sculpturing, writing etc.). I wrote this here poem about the One Ring, and it got me an A. I hope you guys agree that it's worth it.
Love, peace and a paperclip (or a Ring of Power, whichever you prefer),

I am small and gold
Perfectly round
In fire I reveal my secret
I am powerful and cold
No one can resist me
And the tempted ones, they die
I am treacherous and old
Only one can rule me
All others must bend
I tempt the noble and the bold
Pull them into darkness
I corrupt all hearts
In ancient lore of me is told
I fit on all fingers
I am the bane of kings
I've seen mountains and the Wold
Rested in rivers
Have been to places you'll never see
In the mountain I was forged
Meant to rule over all others
Free races of Dwarves, Elves and Men
I bind them in my spell
Darkness shall come
You cannot hide, I will find you
Doom is inescapable
What I am? A ring.

E/N: Well, that's it. Not extremely long, but not short either. (Thank you Captain Obvious...) I hope you people liked it, I for one do. *fill in usual plea for reviews here*
