This has been on my radar since you posted it and I've been hoping to get to it before it slipped from the Most Recent page! (For no better reason than I'm lazy and clicking on your name is one extra step. ;) I am not disappointed; this is wonderful with brilliant turns of phrase:

the double helix of despair and violence
I plunged into the bowels of the earth and lost your name...

And, of course, I'm a sucker for Maedhros/Fingon. :) Well done!

Thank you very much! I'm glad you like those particular lines, as they were ones I was worried about. As for the end of the second one (Maedhros "losing" Fingon's name), I've written about that subject also in one of the stories, although I wouldn't by any means go so far as to say that the line of the poem necessarily presupposes that version of the tale.
