Dylan was lost in the fury of battle. Magpie had taken hits, but she, like the old warrior she was, kept going. #Magenta flashes of fire blinked and disappeared among the tumult.
This was going badly. So very badly. Or we’ll. so very well. He couldn’t tell. Only carry on fighting.

The rage,
Of how foul their rot
Not even after death
Dead men walk,
Dead men rule
They bring hell,
To living men.

If I could
I'd take your hand
I’ll lead you to another place another land.
Watch hearts grow
bold in fields of green
Where tall blooms sway both brave and free
So come with me take
my hand.
As I lead you to
another place another land

‘Do you know what #augury means?’
‘That’s an old word. In ancient times, special people, augers, made predictions based on bird actions.’
‘Oh, kinda like I do when I watch my crows.’
‘Your crows? What sort of predictions do you make from crows?’
‘It’s gonna happen just be-caws.’

At Christmas,
My grandfather glowed,
With the warmth of coal fire and pine
Among the wrinkles,
A child still smiles
With the shine of dinky tin.

You’re not human if you don’t care for gossip ?
Be honest,
It’s Stories and tales you crave
The Spreading of another's endeavours
Local villains, the strange saviours
Hypnotised by a romantic hero craze
Everyone else becomes yesterday's Chic.
So Tell me as tale, and make it quick.

A new set of outfits called to Rory in the game store, beautiful and #chic, but he couldn’t use any of them for Esme. Not for a witch. Black. Very, very black with the ubiquitous tall, pointed hat. That was what Esme wore. And sturdy boots.
Pithea, however, would look amazing!

Nothing is left soft
Once a life is lived,
In love or in troublesome
We are all touched by the petals of
Vespertine’s bloom
The plum of her meddling bruises,
Covering our overripe summer fruits Staining under waxed paper skin.

Has anybody seen poor Jimmy?
Last night he was looking through a hell of lot of whiskey,
Acting all chivalrous at Big Jinny
I think that's the last
We'll see of poor Jimmy.

Once we have them broken
We fill their bare cracks, With fragments of our notions Till wills become cemented.
The defiance of the chivalrous?
To the fire,
For the ash to clot their bloodshed

‘I’m going to be late, the boys need their lift to the site’
Where the last words my father said
As I tricked him to bed,
He had refused many nights before.
Taking off his slippers, he knew,
There was nothing more he could construct,
No escape,
Work could no longer come first.
