British Lit in One Day

Sleeping like a dragon, a thief wakes me With a whisper, calling— Stealing me away from the sweetest dream Where on a hill, tall, stands a tree The beauty of an eternal summer beckons From my window A fated storm rushes me into the world Opens up a map of a thousand dimensions Arm me with Naegling And a Green Girdle, protect me From a master of manipulation And a sorcerer dealing in devilish deeds The road takes me on and so Down the line 800 I roam. The smell of paper and ink roasts me Fuses with my soul for eternity Puck trips me On the way out of Eden Breaking my focus— No flood to catch my fall A shepherd calls for his lover and my home calls me A new dream tempts me to bed with fairies singing. Carpe noctem, sieze the night, Because at night I may be dancing with the Fairy Queen

fraternize

A Sonnet in Aziraphale's POV, for Crowley

O! thou, black-winged devil of the night

Thy sweet fragrance doth draw temptation near

Thy luscious red locks doth frame quite the sight

Thy manner, though ungentle, precludes fear

Thou art the Serpent of Eden, forsooth

Yet persuasion was thy only tool

Besides, humankind thanks thee for its fruit

Whilst sword brought nought but War, and me a fool.

---

Thou sayest that niceness must be abhorred

Whilst upon me every kindness bestowed

'Tis thus for thy cruel Master and Lords?

Heaven, too, observes; thus I take this road.

---

Our parting may be abrupt and extend

Yet meet we shall as humanity ends.

----------------------------------------------------------

Hope this sounds at least a little in-character

I did research Elizabethan/Shakespearean English but I'm not certain I've got the grammar etc. all right. Would love to hear from anyone, sonnet/old English afficionado or otherwise, if you have any corrections to make (it would really help me!)

I would love critique and comments

This was obviously set before the apocalypse and features semi-oblivious-Aziraphale™ as usual. Only this dumbass angel could praise his demon's looks and recognize his kind qualities but remain firmly in denial. (Though yes, he is doing it partly since Heaven is observing.)

If you prefer AO3, I've posted it as newrocketsuggestions there!

Composition Lesson Introduction. A name, a place, a story and a time stamp A statement to showcase the point That grows large until it stands on its own. The developing idea—a flourishing flora that stretch All around, the outline of a tree.

Body. Paragraph, paragraph, paragraph. A body of thoughts, a body of text, A body of a notion materialized— Out of thin air Supported with a quote. And decorated With a transition, and a clause to end.

Body. Paragraph, paragraph, paragraph. Fill the pages with gems Sparkling ones only—selected with care Each word, precious, precise, Discovered in a cavern Full of secrets, now written in lines.

Body. Paragraph, paragraph, paragraph. Sentences, the cutting lines Like the tail of a wishing star Spreading are the vines of thoughts Climbing cross the paper From the tip of a pen, they grow.

Conclusion. A circle back to the start. A name, a place, a repeat of the forepart. Thoughts, words, sentences, from the tip of a pen. Lines on the face of a piece of paper— A statement to showcase the point That grows large until it stands on its own.

A Sleepless Night Sky

Stars Blinking, like a secret Untold, and Beautiful, like a butterfly Wild, and Untouched, like a rainbow Brilliant, and Majestic, like the ocean Profound, and Inviting. A cup of warm tea I look up, and Dawn

Finding Grandma’s House

Following the bone-white pebbles Down a winding flowery road— Walk pass a rosy garden And a willow that rains gold

Trade the showy red cap For a donkey’s skin Better blend in the shadows To hide from the wolf’s grin

The magic fish points to A mineshaft where dwarves dig The castle’s pointy top shines Like a diamond-covered twig

One hand holds the basket The other a lively wreath A crown fit for a princess— Made of soft petals and leaves

The road leads to a clearing Finally, the journey’s done The Grandma’s door, ajar— A new story’s just begone

Hi :)

I've always felt intimidated by the idea of writing poems; they are mysterious and beautiful, so far and so close. I want to try writing them, though, so I made a new blog for them.

Is making a new blog necessary? No. Do I want to do it? Hell yeah.

Oh, and if you are here to stay, grab a cup of tea!
