New Challenge: Bollywood
This month's challenge offers songs, films, and tropes from Bollywood, the world's largest film industry based out of India, as prompts for fanworks.
Water runs in tears of rain, once frozen
Now storm-released as snow, as sleet, as hail
Waves, wind-whipped, do bring destruction, chosen
Downfall of land o'erburdened by travail
Where fire also feeds, burns hot and fierce
Consuming rock and stronghold, foe and friend
And air itself in twists sends trees to pierce
Through walls, tears earth, and breaks what will not bend
This too is Song, these notes that ground unknits
The elements unite to Balrogs slay
Chill dragonfire, swift scour Angband's pits,
Unchain the thralls and Morgoth hold at bay.
What balance might be found, what green might grow
'Neath restless waves, that o'er those lands now flow?
