For those who survive here'e number fiveThe victim was, breathing hard Heart pounding long and loud To win this bout against the Bard He must appease the crowd Sunshine's gleam gave him a thought This battle he could win If he the crowd's approval sought And just admit his sin But this could not be, he'd sigh The crowd wanted his head Much more real to try to fly And use sun's light instead Denise and Sven, together marched Towards the ring's bright center The ground now arid, dry and parched No sign of rain that entered The sun began to beat down And in the distant west The rain bedazzled wore a crown At Rainbow's behest Kethry pushed from behind Her job to wear him out Denise and Sven in union kind Began to fight the bout The victim stood and edged around His back toward the sun If he in darkness could be found He would not be the only one He crawled around the wall's edge And took Denise from behind Placed his fingers on a ledge And hurt with words unkind Denise was sorely wounded But Sven came in to kill The horn rose as battle sounded The fight was joined for good or ill To be continued… Religion is for people frightened about going to hell - Spirituality is for people who have been there.
