Well, it may not be for me to try to speak about your wedding,
Beyond 'congratulations,' or some mildly sexy teasing.
And it may not be the ragnarok it might be for some people
(I'll not name them but to say June once was theirs and is no...
Congratulations Khaki, Paeonic Tetrameter, Poetry, wedding
Some say it was all folklore, of the sort civilizations
Will sprout like fungus from the leaking seams as they grow senile.
That those who live like wolves among the ruins may find comfort
In tales that make the wolves out in the wastelands to seem...

Fiddling while Rome burns,
If a fiddle's all you have,
Is hardly a sin.

Well a couple mourners gathered, and a bunch more came to stare.

They bought a discount casket and a requiem was said

I've lost count of the homes that I have lost.
One time too many I've been driven out.
On futile search my substance to exhaust,
In barren soil to sow my crop of doubt.
I am no longer young. My years have worn
Onto the age I ought to put down...

How often have I dreamed of such a place?
How often have I seen those emerald fields,
And in that dream, forgotten that I dreamed,
That I would wake, had woken, and my life
Dissolved into a peaceful deja vu
That cannot be remembered? I can...

So ends the tale of Shane the Champion.
Of his blood-brother, Varr the Last-to-Flee.
Of Klau the Berserker, called the Blacksword.
Of the Old Man, who some hold was a god.
Of the lost Witchfolk, and their young Lady
Who solely of her people is not...
