Swamp¤Faeryie ... Gibbon's work is packed full of intrigue and mystery ... it can be a difficult work to get through and may be better used as a pure reference, but i really dug into to it after seeing the movie, "Gladiator" ... thanks for reading and for your comments ...

Xeonox ... "Presentation Poetry" (as i like to call it) doesn't seem to have much of a place yet, which is quite odd, but i'm working to convince folks that there are other ways to look at words ... thanks for reading and your comments ...



My calling before me, let quill be my offering;

I really loved the movie Gladiator. I also loved the poem. I thought it was really written quite nicely.
Hope to read more!

For the life of me I couldn't open this..
Is it my old stupid computer with Windows 95?

Hi MA,

This is grand writing ... Yeah , it definitely is.
I love reading poetry with medieval themes and you have written this so wonderfully.
Great work.
