His castle stands in the world of ice surrounded in the eternal night He has riches and powers that grow His heart however has no where to go Upon an Autumn day in the icey void He set out upon the darkest road His days were long and his nights were cold Yet his heart warmed against fears untold On the longest night in a world of fire Where an old king ignited all the pires And the sun never left the sky The ice king faced the demon throne The great demon stood on a mountain high Throwing balls of fire across the sky As the ice king stood his ground the great demon was looking down The Great king drew his sword on high And threw it mightily unto the sky Into the fire travelling straight it flew And the demon wailed as the sword struck true Ice extinguished fire and burned Into smoke the demon turned As it disapated in the wind And the world became a rain of cinders And the road streched away and long For the good king pure and strong For his journey has far to go And away he went into the frow < !signature--> Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace, of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd [This message has been edited by Walter Poe (edited 02-25-2000).] |

Inspiration Was reading an old poem Hiawatha i never exactly read the poem but when i was little we did it at school and i guess it stuck with me. Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace, of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd |
