Pop magic
thriller night
no such thing
as black and white

If you must cut
then cut deeply
the only rule
don't sell out cheaply

Applied to magic
all morality
is rather tragic
it is what it be

Fnord?

My Lord!

Whatever does it mean?

Is it obscene?

Unclean?

Something mean?

A vulgarity?

Some hilarity?

Or a blessing
from the skies
In disguise?

Opinions vary.

And nary a wit
Hath writ
A fnord,

And lived
Long enough
To explain.

Love knows no barriers
But respects boundaries
Deeply, truly, madly,
And without condition

Yaeah more humans!
May this life be
a hand,
A candle,
A flame,
And a light
In long life

Steady. Cool. Calm. One foot. Another. Another. Another. Never alone. Never afraid. Not stopping. No haste. Inexorable is the Way to the brighter shining day just down the road a piece. There is meaningful, lasting peace.

I and you,
embers living for hours
The slow lick,
fiery tongue on hot coal
No flame this,
warm sweetness and shadow
Slow moments,
crawling as wood meets its match
Completeness,
a burning without concern of loss
Now timeless,
you and I burn eternal as we part

It's always war crimes. It's always civilian slaughter. They think this makes them powerful, and they're RIGHT, but it's a temporary and false power for cowards and thieves. It's fragile. It corrodes the soul.

There IS a Greater Power by many Names. The most fitting of these is Love. Another is Justice. Yet another Peace. These Names will endure long after the evils of these days have no more to slaughter for, nor power to do so anyway. One day, sooner than some may think, this True and Holy Power will be the only power remaining on this blessed Earth.

Until then fight to survive.
Fight for your lives.
Fight for your Love.
Fight for that Peace
For it has surely arrived.

*sea shanty tune to small accordion*

I once had a little matey
Named Pango he was
He look'd like he was 80
And he never wore 'draws

Well one day in a stupor
He did climb the maaaast
And dropped a giant pooper
Screamin' FREEDOM AT LAST

So I swabbed poo off the poop deck
Soon old Pango came down
'An he asked me real cryptic
"Just why is it sir ye frown?"

Well I was in a foul fury, I pulled me gun
But old Pango he drew on me first
I had mere bullets, 'e made more poo son
That old Pango was the worst

One little seed
In the soil
With some toil
A little pain
Some good Fortune
A bit of rain
Will one fine day
Become a tree
Fine to see
And fit for both
Fruit and shade
