Aug 08: poem: No lights ? ... oh no !

Some bold adventurers,
three or maybe it was four,
decided to wander out of town,
and find some monsters,pwn them and take their gold.

They set out,
on a clear day,
they could see forever,
which is really a long way.
Off yonder to the mountains,
they did go.

On again on again,
towards the Deep Darkness,
that showed as the setting Sun,
did drape shadows about the lands.

Set up a camp site,
yes they did.

Then to discover,
none had brought a way to cook their food,
nor light their way.

No lanterns did they have,
no torches galore,
nor glowing swords,
no Light spells memorized,
alas alack.

No way to see in the dark either,
they were all humans,
and were not prepared.

They hoped the moon would rise,
and light up the landscape,
but it did lightning and rain instead.

Even the rabbits grew bold,
and chomped at their boot heels.

ouch.

They decided to make themselves,
a moving target.

And wandered about,
in the Deep Dark,
a way out yonder.

Alas, they had a bad map,
it did not show the cliff,
nor the deep valley beside it.

The lightning had abated.

They went

yeeeeooowww!

[thud]

and ouch they did go,
until a voice so deep,
it sounded like a mountain talked...

did ask,"Are you food ?"

lettuce draw the curtain over this episode,
for they didn't come back to town,
nevermore.
