I don't know which side of this thread I hate more. The awful poetry or the even more awful satirical poetry. At least most of those actually trying to write this crap know where their shift key is. -TopTierEngineer

I came to lands once unseen, An empty gun, a broken dream, A planet lost, a people bound, A new beginning, a purpose found. -Marlowe, Private Investigator.
I have composed several poems in my free time, but the poem that I hold closest to my heart is this one that I found in Blade's journal... I dreamt last night that I was in a perfect world, where nothing was ever wrong… but fire was spreading. In one fireplace in one house in one town, a fire spread, forgotten in its abandoned hearth. Then, in an instant, the fires lit up the world in a blazing inferno, consuming everything with malicious glee, running amok across the world, as though the fires of the Hell from which all dark things come had surfaced in this world. The moaning and whistling and screaming of those consumed rose up like the cries of the damned, raising their voices up to the heavens above, begging and pleading for mercy from their torment eternal. The cinders themselves ran across the world like fiery demons, with one purpose: to spread as much havoc as possible in the short time given. Then I woke up to find that the dream was real: my life was as hellish as the bitter dream from which I had awakened. This may, at first glance, seem like it serves no purpose, but it gives a glimpse into the horrors that Blade went through when she was a slave to the inquisition of the Apex. How every moment of sleep was haunted by nightmares, and how every waking moment was just as bad, if not worse. It's a miracle she even survived... her journals seem to be a treasure trove of information... I shall ask Luke if I may publish them.... -ANIMA

Here's a poem my mother wrote. It's very dear to my family. I'm sure many a Floran will take a 'stab' at criticizing it but it's symbolic of my family's hopes for the future. Hope for us. Floran, Hylotl, The Plant and Amphibian, Cycle of hatred. The Lily and Frog, The Plant and Amphibian, In coexistence. Chlorophyll and blood Follow natures example Working together Can't our two races Through reconciliation, Find peace together? Look to the Lily, Frog, in cooperation. There is hope for us. -Gillian Beluga
