he set the quilp to rise again
his shoes were not for sale
water was his existence's bane
singing a traitorous tale
beyond the veil he cut all ties
whatever kept him apart
his riches based on tricks and lies
cheating became an art

Yeah I dare you! I double dare you muthaf**ker (as Samuel l Jackson said in Pulp Fiction) Nonsense it up
#TheRivals came about after a chat Lin and I was having where she said sometimes rivals in poetry spurred her on.....
Being me. This became posting on her poems.. telling her who good it was and then very stupidly leaving a very very crap insult, which was more of a compliment usually.
Yeah well you all write really good and I'm not jealous because.. because... you have hairy palms ....
So there

I mean... I do. Don't you?
Are you that behind on the times that you don't wink at geese? Don't you know it's a matter of safety? If you dont wink you don't think.
Propaganda 101 entry, did I pass, professor?

Like a shroud of cicadas,
Midnight covers the escapades
Of our illustrious family, Vega
As told in the dust and the shades.

Dark, the absence of light
in my mind that drags
me into that abyss of loathing.
No sacred sense of serenity
as again I tear myself
apart.
Bleeding and crying
in the dark.
(Im really in a good mood)

When winterβs howl creeps
In, and food ever runs short
We pray for more cheese.
#haiku #therivals
Address the questions
Will there be enough cheese now?
To outlast winter?

The Red moon is 'The main group' since two of the party are rudiusborne while the Blue team. I thought using the moons was too perfect. The items are meant to represent the Jewel (The lantern) and Ayo's spear.
