Poetry

[Sunni Daez]

Simply that Nyte... just decided to try again.

[nitefyre]

OK, just making sure Well (re)good luck (and to the new Zine crew)


By the bye, will the new issue be releasing on time per equinox?

[deadboy]

Sorry Sunni but I won't be sending you anymore poems because my poet is now dead (her life's story was basically over so I decided it would be a good place to wrap it up). However, the is one poem I could submit by another now dead character, but I don't have a copy of it. Therefore, could a member of staff please look in Baaak Hills South jailhouse for a note entitled something like "Alone" (Or something else along those lines) and PM it to me

I don't know if equinox is the right term, but we're aiming for an 'end of March' release.

Perhaps an April Fool's Day episode...

We're getting a little off-topic, Nite.

Poetry!

There, now we're back on topic. Sorta.

[nitefyre]

It was a strong and brilliant poetic idea, which actually, I wanted to do last year. Before Sarah agreed that it might be a little harsh to pull the April Fool's Day joke that Pie (whose grammar has improved considerably since) had become editor in chief of the zine--since it was actually quite believable.

Besides, Hermi/Ulo, you're not allowed to point something back on direction unless you add something topical (read: poetic), like an Ode to the Zine that I can later satire with lines such as "Ogre of the Zine, oh odors of these lines" so on and so forth until we're all just merry and golly and not so pricklyish about such trivialities and...

Oh yeah, by warming up discussion on the topic, we're actually encouraging people to flock here like moths to light. It's really a disservice to be so strictly and capricious to your veterans. Veteran Zine editors, that is. Unless you do pay us due heed in thine new Ode.

I've done my 'Zine poetry time. And that was my one word poem, didn't you like it? So easy to memorize! Poetry! Much easier than... say.. this:

Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow-
You are not wrong who deem,
That my days have been but a dream.
Yet if hope has flown away,
In a night or in a day,
In a vision or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem,
Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar,
Of a turf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand,
Grains of the golden sand-
How few! Yet how they creep
Through my fingers, to the deep.
While I weep- while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tigher clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem,
But a dream within a dream?

Though it was not really so difficult. I'm sure there are much more difficult ones out there.

[Sunni Daez]

All cantrian poetry is accepted, author dead or alive.... Send it to me as I stated...

Could someone PM me a copy of the note about "He-Who-Is-Without"? It's a creation myth that should be floating around the Stone Knight territories; it's dated ~580 and initialed T.G.

Probably you mean "The Book of the Beginning"? If so I've sent it. Sorry about the wretched formatting but somehow "soft" carriage returns became "hard" ones. Yes, Comrade Fran still remembers it....all the way over in what was Akypor Forest South.

I got one used in game from a prison my char wanted to let the people know what was going on before he died but the town autually disposed of the man who locked me up and set me free in another town true story here goes!!!!!!

[buddyhall]

ROBS A MURDERER AND THATS A FACT!


Leader dead, keep killing my people we will fight back
Self defense is not a voilent act
everyone who lets an innocent man sit here is a punk ass Bitch
wait till it's your turn to get locked up and frisked
weapon to your head hand cuffs on your wrists
If you want to live it's time to resist
We're getting no justice
The judge the jury and the courts is fixed
put up your fists if your sick of this shit
Robs a murderer and thats a fact
you wanna live free fight back
these smited eyes of mine aint blind no more
I'm getting ready for guerilla war
I'm a non sell out i don't hate the players
i hate the crooked barons and mayors
When your done break this lock
I'll feel good hearing rob got shot
you can keep this place if you really want it
your the peoples army so get on it!
