I Stand Alone - by Vaelyn ------------------------- Who can say why the water falls? The marker rests softly on the edge I wonder if the boot lives in fear My body stands alone My senses are too keen today The pieces do not fit together I wonder if my thoughts will be made clear My mind stands alone Perhaps it is the rain Wine does not always fill the cup I wonder if the moon howls in silence My spirit stands alone I know only that I dream There is nothing there for me I wonder if I am I stand alone Tales from the Bottle - by Vaelyn --------------------------------- We're drinking and we're laughing at the firebreather fountain and the sober wisdom falls in short supply. Arvar's my companion, not a Sergeant or a Captain, and he's drinking half of Thera in his mind. A voice from nowhere whispers twice. The room, it shows its dizzy side. My legs don't work. My eyes are blind. I don't think I'll be feeling right anytime (soon). Then the Keeper kills the Legion and the Mystic comes to see me, but I'm drunk like Trogm after a fight. Arvar, my companion, has a bottle for the masses and we think it's Iggy's turn to take a bite. So we stumble and we stagger through the plains and up the ladders to where the pyros and the Bar-Igura cry. The elemental iceballs twice. The Faction shows its frigid side. More magic seeds from paradise I don't think I'll be feeling right anytime (soon). We're drinking and we're laughing at the firebreather fountain and the sober wisdom falls in short supply. Arvar's my companion, wants to find his girl romantic and he knows she likes him but he wonders why. The crow of karma calls out twice. The streets then show their quiet side. The sun may never fail to rise. I don't think I'll be feeling right anytime (soon). (Continued in poems2) |
