I turned it into a screenplay.
After reading the poem, click on "B - Sample Movie Script Page (based on poem ... )"
which is on the green bar to the right.
There, you can read the first page of the screenplay. Enjoy!
Unknown Strength
In a land not far away, there lives a certain woman
Who possesses unknown strengh ... unknown to every human.
She has but one lone relative, a kind and doting brother,
And even he, of different blood; they were orphans together.
When they were young, they ran away from cruel adoptive parents
Who slaved and beat them every day and shamed the face of heaven.
He, being older, sheltered her and gave her education
On how to cuss and how to fight and drink wine on occasion.
The two of them were always in some trouble or the other
Living by their love and wits; oh, how she loved her brother!
One day when she was fully grown and he, of course, a man
A giant stranger kidnapped him who had a secret plan.
The sister hunted high and low for her beloved brother
And in the hunt, a different thing was what she did discover.
It made her wonder: what am I? with fervent desperation.
For she was killed but could not die nor heed death's invitation.
It was a kind of unknown strength that poured from in her soul
First, she was killed, then quickly lived, and never growing old.
And so this girl who knew no roots, no father and no mother
Spent all her never-ending life searching for her brother.
