Day: October 21, 2008
From time to time over the next couple days, I will be posting poems as blog posts. Do not be alarmed by this, as I will not be switching to a poetry centered site. However, I wrote these poems some time ago, and just want to get them online so that they are safe. I’ll try to keep the crappier ones at bay, though I may not be the best judge of that (I tend to think they all pretty much suck except for a few).
I’ve almost cleared out my list of posts to republish from CGS and will begin writing new ones soon. I think Secret of Mana will probably get a write up, as will Mega Man 9.
In other news, Vote Smarter is a web site with some rather funny videos similar to Mac vs PC ads but concerning the Presidential candidates. It appears to be Obama-centric, so if you’re for McCain you may not like them as much. Of course, if you’re for McCain, you probably won’t like a lot of what is and will be on this blog throughout its life cycle. Sorry for that.
The grass rustles beneath my feet.
Swish. Swish.
As I tread firmly on, stopping for no one.
Seeking justice. Seeking redemption.
Life flows from my side, mixing with the dust in the air.
Dripping into the dirt, making small droplets of mud.
Staining the tall grass as I pass through it.
Swish. Swish.
I must not stop. Not even for this.
Redemption is near.
I can see his shadow before me.
I can see the stained grass that he has left.
I can see his droplets of mud.
Swish. Swish.
I am gaining. Justice is nearer.
He stops and waits.
For me.
Turning, he lets life flow.
Swish. Swish.
I stand before him, treading no more.
Swish.
We both know the end is here.
Not near. Here.
No one will walk away, but honor must be restored.
Justice must be done.
He grins.
I lunge.
Sun glints off steel
Justice must be served.
No. Not justice.
Vengeance.
