What if eternity was a
Second
(Chances come only ever)
And seconds were more than days?
Time
Is (only) an
Illusion.
Shhhhhh
She croons
Mother wind
Father destiny
(was never kind to the likes of me.)
If time
Is (only) an illusion…
Then what am I?

In paths of oblong rhythm
Snaking, vibrant, unusual beauty
Searching and seeking the deltas of reason
Tending towards disorder, chaos, uncertainty
Winds surging in opposite function
Unknown to each other
Siblings separated at birth
Often meeting in turbulent spouts
The conflict of irrelevant existence
An orbiting reality that has no name
Floats around the blind eyes of mass populace
“I am here, know me.
My words are truth, justice.
Hold me close and feel my presence.
Let me save you from the treachery of your false sanctity.”
Mesmerizing shadows dance as harlots
Corruption seething from their formless bodies
Feeding savagely upon the unconscious relapse
Seeking comfort and betraying humble essence
Sweaty palmed grips loose around the straight and narrow
Shallow pools of tears evaporate into lost emotions
Serving only as memories to a forgotten innocence
Where in Heaven an Hell is there room for this?
Simplicity gone, discarded by obsessive convenience
The understanding of being is hated
The understanding of ignoring it seem far more appealing
These paths of resonating meter
Like twisted serpents, no room to stretch
Converge in the light and darkness
Differences collide, it calls for acceptance

I was the wind in your hair
Then the scissors that cut
Off one golden lock

I was the song on your lips
Then the finger that stilled
Your joyous voice

I was the light in your eyes
Then the slumber that drew
Those curtains shut

I was the kiss on your brow
Then the teardrop that fell
As I whispered goodbye

Written by [Triola]

when maintenance is due and elftown closes its gates
to us humble visitors of its realm,

do the high elves stumble, the trolls hold sophisticated debates,
the orcs appear at the city's helm?

do the hobbits travel, the teenagers start taking notes,
the dwarves start climbing the old city elm?

or do they just cease to exist, only to reappear in our minds
when the system upgrade is done...
