Samael

No. You did not. You grasped and you clutched. Fervent and tenacious, you thrashed blindly. You let yourself seep into something from which the bottom had fallen out. Death has obfuscated greater minds than yours, slipped through the fingers of those who have crushed continents. Death sweeps over you rapid and uncaring. But I do not blame you. You saw something that blinked across your vision. A beauty undiluted by the defective faculty of your eyes. You tried to catch it in the dirty imperfection of your hands. Do not be perturbed, Mev.

(He Lied About Death)

Wings

Each day when I wander this way and that,
The charm of sweet nature, it speaks to me,
With eyes shot with marvel I stop and stare,
Transfixed instance of hope, set to flutter free.

But 'gainst this mortal coil hope strains its wings,
My heart it lifts to a transient peak,
A short, sharp second of this sweet recourse,
Then the ground is gone from under my feet.

No place, no drive, no unerring focus,
There is nothing that grounds this wayward heart,
And so I walk, I watch, I wait and hope,
I am Mev, I am Mev, I play my part.

He Lied About Death

The new writing project is slowly being born...

A body in the woods. A wanderer. A knight 'seeking out grievances'. The Tantalising Troupe. A bloody knife. A mysterious maiden. Samael. Dreams. Play-acting and death-dancing. Come one, come all... across the threshold.

...and then what happened?

ONLOOKER

There was a big crash and something fell out into the street, looked like a filing cabinet or sumthin. Then a wiry feller jumped out after it, rolled like a kitty cat, grabbed it and took off...

(pause)

...where did you say you guys were from again?

ISAAC

Which direction did he go in?

ONLOOKER

Dashed off pretty sharpish, after picking up the loot of course. Meandering all over the shop, but eventually headed over to The Hill I reckon.

(pause)

Where did you say you guys were from again?

ISAAC
Did he seem agitated....focused?

ONLOOKER

Didn't really get a good look at his countenance to be fair with you, but he made a bit of a yelp when he hit the floor. Tough street we got here.

(pause)

Where did you guys say you were from again?

ISAAC
I didn't.

Isaac turns and walks away.
