The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Cave

Dark, always dark

Chanting, soprano, panting, rythmic... melodious

white, twisting... what is it?

Otherworldly

 

Revealed

Pale, gazing... vengful? judgemental?

rather, truth seeking...

after me...

plunging...

Darkness, again.

 

Swimming, swirling... treading...

deep, can't breath

ledge

salvation.

 

Struggling back, towards

the light, her face

I see now...

 

I see her....

 

Sadness.

Humiliation.

Despair.

Rune scampers into the room just in time to hear the last part of poem. After the crowd has cleared she walks up to Mister Wolfe and tugs on his pant leg.

 

'Cuse me Sir. Could you please read your poem to me?

 

Jonathan Wolfe looks around a bit confused but figures why not. He rambles off his poem to the child who sits wide eyed.. attempting to understand the symbolism and deep thought put into the poem. After he is done, he glances at her waiting for her response, perhaps wanting some reassurance or even some acknowledgement for his hard work.

 

Its good! She squeaks. Really good! Hoping down from the chair she was perched on for the recital she grins and half runs, half skips out of the room.
