Hermit Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 Oh, Say, is that he? In the haze of the fight A super soldier who for Freedom will never stop dreaming? Who insists we should use our might to uphold the right! "He's only one man" His foes are in frustration screaming. And somehow my friend, the battle he'll win "I can do this all day" he'll say again and again. Oh, Say does that star kissed shield still our butts save Assemble true believers, Cap knows we are brave! First Hero Pick: Captain America Steve Rogers (Yes, I know Star Spangled Man with a plan did it better ) Pariah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucius Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 There was an age of wonders fair to see After the thawing of millenia winter's chills Before the peoples round the inland sea Fled their great cities for the woods and hills. After the thawing of millenia winter's chills Before the folk who built with bronze and stone Fled their great cities for the woods and hills With Legends in their very blood and bone. Before the folk who built with bronze and stone Came those who forged strong myth from dreams and words With Legends in their very blood and bone Their Gods and Heroes were both seen and heard. Came those who forged strong myth from dreams and words Before the peoples round the inland sea. Their Gods and Heroes were both seen and heard. There was an Age of Wonders fair to see. My setting is the lands around the eastern Mediterranean in the time between the end of the last great Ice Age and the period of disruption called the "Greek Dark Ages" or the "Bronze Age Collapse" - where the flickering light of History gives out and the shadowy images of Legend loom. Lucius Alexander There's no way I'm fitting a palindromedary into a set of linked quatrains like that. Pariah and Hermit 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan D.

Hermit Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 (With apologies to By Samuel Taylor Coleridge ) From Paradise, did Wonder Woman depart from to cross the seas What she knew as the World of Man Where innocent blood freely ran And rife was tragedy By unseen plane she broke speed of sound And flying to the home of capital hill, For Masterminds schemed to yoke the free; and fiends were sent to work their wills, Enfolding the world in villainy!
