Castlevania III Haiku

Anyone who's played "Castlevania III: Dracula's curse" knows it's hard as hell. I'm talking Trevor and Grant travelling the passages and scaling the castle to face Dracula himself. No save states, no walkthroughs, no cheats, just hours and hours of trying and making little bits of progress here and there... just enough to keep you going.  To say the least it's frustrating.

Here's some Castlevania III inspired Haiku about the games difficulty.
 
Picture

A grunt when injured

Profanities out my mouth

Belmont barely speaks

Picture

Familiar screen

Unlimited Continues?

Oh glint of false hope...

Picture

Dry skeleton snakes

Impossibly animated

Awaken my anger

Picture

The wall doesn't break

No needed pork-chop in sight?

I flip a table

Picture

Much hatred inside

Designed to make me suffer

Somehow I'm called back

Picture

 He falls to his death

Again, after just one hit!

I die more inside

Picture

Ten minute level

Now finally completed.

Seven hours later


Picture

Death only dies twice

How many times have I faced you?

More than you have scythes

Picture

Treacherous ascent

Upward to more torture

Water flows down too easy

Picture

Tension. You and I -

Both one hit away from death

...Again!?  F@## this game!
