A Touhou poem I made: Pads Of Metal

Subject: A Touhou poem I made: Pads Of Metal Tue Apr 19, 2011 3:28 pm

So I was horribly bored this one night and a certain good girl apparently liked a Solstice song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8gvs6UhpfA) I posted on my FB profile. This ended up in a discussion involving a theoretical Touhou metal band with album titles like "HIGHLY RESPONSIVE TO DENIAL OF LIFE", "MYSTIC SQUARE WITHIN THE PENTAGRAM", and "SHOOT THE BULLET INTO THE HEAD OF CHRIST" and such. Inevitably, a certain Manowar was brought up. And of course, "Gloves Of Metal" off of "Into Glory Ride". The original song can be listened here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3J5psthAf8g

Before you read it, I'd advise reading the original lyrics first: http://www.darklyrics.com/lyrics/manowar/intogloryride.html#3

HEAR THE POUNDING ARMY OF THE EAST
THE CALL OF TOUHOU SUMMONS THE FEMALE BEAST
AND WE GATHER ON THIS SITE
TO BEHOLD THE ANIMISM AND LILY WHITE
WE WEAR FRILLY HATS, WE WEAR SKIRTS, WE RULE THE NIIIIIIIIGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHT

OFF WITH THE FAIRIES, PROJECTILES FILL THE SCREEN
SEE THE PHANTASMAGORIA OF THE DIM DREAM
THE SOUND OF DAMMAKU SO LOUD IT CRACKS THE BEAMS
FIRED BY WARRIORS CALLED THE BULLET HELL QUEENS
A MIKO'S WELCOME FOR THOSE WHO HEED THE CALL
WE ARE MOE, WE ARE ALL
WITH HANDS HIGH, GOHEIS FILL THE AIR
AGAINST THE INCIDENTS WE STAND
GOHEIS HIGH, FOREVER WE'LL BE THERE

PADS OF METAL RULE TONIGHT YEA

A PERFECT MAID'S WELCOME FOR THOSE WHO HEED THE CALL
WE ARE LOLIS, WE ARE ALL
WITH HANDS HIGH, BULLETS FILL THE AIR
AGAINST THE INCIDENTS WE STAND
GOHEIS HIGH FOREVER WE'LL BE THERE
PADS OF METAL RULE TONIGHT YEA
KIMONOS, SKIRTS, GOHEIS, AND CHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN
PADS OF METAL RAISED TO SHOW THE BRAVE
INTO MAKAI MARCH THE ARMIES OF THE EAST
BOUND BY DAMMAKU THEY ARE THE MAIDEN PRIESTS
WE WEAR FRILLY HATS, WE WEAR SKIRTS, WE RULE THE NIGHT
WITH HANDS HIGH GOHEIS FILL THE AIR
AGAINST INCIDENTS WE STAND
GOHEIS HIGH, FOREVER WE'LL BE THERE
PADS OF METAL RULE THE NIGHT YEA
