The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Of the Duality of Honour


Kendricke

Recommended Posts

I cannot keep my back to darkness,

but neither look full on the sun.

The world exists between their harshness,

Day and Night exist as One.

 

Within me now, a stain of night.

No way have I to cleanse its dark.

No light to reach my soul intact,

and yet no one will see it's mark.

 

I am a walking contradiction,

I am the lamb in wolfen skin ,

knowing that the greatest fiction...

...often lies within."

This reads on so many levels I haven't time to respond to them all!

 

Even independent of the Character history which goes into the posters name, this reads well. Taken in context with the Lord Kendricke Legionary Honour, this is fascinating.

 

One favorite writer of mine, Hodgell I think, explores the two-edges of Honour's paradox. This fits well with that.

 

It also speaks to the multitudes of people I known, that wear a mask to the world but feel quite differently inside, either numb, hollow, or whatever.

 

Drat, just started and have to go!
