Post subject:  The Seer

I am the seer, the one who sees,
In the darkness and in the light.
I am the one who wholly decrees,
We are enshrouded in eternal night.

What does this mean, you want to know,
To see beyond the things we thought?
Life is a puzzle, above and below,
And our pursuit has been for naught.

Look within, look without, carefully ever still,
For the answers you find will confound your mind.
You will never know, though endeavor you will,
The truth is simply and completely sublime.

You’ve embarked on a horrible course,
Fraught with tears and ever-growing sorrow.
I can proclaim until I am forever hoarse,
But you will yearn, needlessly for the morrow.

We are One,And we are One,
Like each atom of the sun,
And the beginning has just began and begun.

Take my hand, take my mind,
Searching til the end of time.
We are used and we are meek and ever so blind,
In a global, senseless pantomime.

Be one with me, as I am with you,
Never fearing the moment just for now.
We all know what is inevitably, honestly true,
The answer is there, and we all know the how.

Abandon this treachery and hypocrisy,
Embrace the reality that lives within you.
Come along, now, destroy this bureaucracy,
And flee to the oceans with their hues of blue.

I am the seer, as you are as well,
These are not things I need to tell.
You know them as well as I can see,
You are just a reflection of what is Me.

Embrace.
Accept.
Love.
Live.
Happy.
And See.

Nice one. I like your style.
<sniffs Arkangyl's wings> You sure this is just fluff?
A bit of barbecue sauce would make all the difference to these, you know. Not that I would...because I'm not allowed.
<frowns>
But I could make an exception...I mean if you're not using them...often.

Why thank you. And no, you may not eat my wings <smiles> Any attempt to do so would be an active of aggression, therefore, we would have to battle in some variety

Post subject:  Re: The Seer

Battle in some variety? What the Hell is THAT?
Is that like a variety bargain bucket of...um...chicken wings?
See? Now I can't think of anything but wings. YOU did this!

Although I'm not about to eat a fairy...as I said. That's not my thing.
Now if you're actually some kind of fiend who's out to mess with my peasants...my friends...well that'd be another matter.

Then I'd be forced to bite your head off and use your neck as a vase for some pretty flowers.

You see, I'm actually quite feminine when it's required.

Yes, I carry a grab bag of Battle plans. Being a lady, I'd have to be gentle.

And, I am not a fairy! <waves halo at you> See! It's a bit tarnished, and one of my wings is usually dipped in blood, but an ArkAngyl none the less!

Ah, 'tis the blood I can smell. You'd best keep that part of yourself away from me.

<belches loudly>
Oh dear. That's not good. I fear it may not be merely a belch.
I should go and empty my bowels.
Nice to see you again.

<dabs mouth with a delicate floral hanky and peers down at it>
Hmmm...fingernails. They just never stay down.

<lumbers out awkwardly>
