《A Portal Fantasy Comedy Poem》Mary had a Little Lamb
Advertisement
1
One evening long ago, Mary and little lamb
both gazed at the sky, pondering meanings of life
Monotony, dullness, ennui suffused them:
Go to school, go back home, wash dishes, no drive
to learn. Her interests lay in philosophy
Nietzsche, Plato, Chesterton, wide variety
Of startling intellects… Not Aesop fabelry
that the teacher regaled students with endlessly
She wanted to run away to France and meet with
existentialists who would challenge all her wit
Oh, what is this? A portal appears… Mary’s gone
Peter is a young shepherd, fourteen years come morn
He celebrates his birthday with his flock, now dawn
Sheepy1, Sheepy2, and Ypeehs, the last name
An attempt at creativity he’s very proud (to) claim!
For thirteen years he gloried in war and battle
Like any other child his age. Epiphany
shines with this new dawn, leaving his high voice broken
“Females,” he croaks, “are not plague ridden monsters, nay,
Not abominations of Beelzebub, I reckon,
But rather attractive,” he opines to his flock.
Fond memories of Mary engulf the boy’s mind
He sees her far out on the prairie with little lamb
Fleece as white as snow. What to do? Perhaps talking
might help. Perhaps an ode to her beauty, he thinks
Oh Beautiful Creature
Goddess of all that you see
This offering of mine- a pitcher,
Can never be worthy of Thee.
He prepares a cup of milk to offer his love
He approaches, palms sweating, legs trembling, mind numb
“OH BOOTIFUL KEECHAAA,” he stammers, and then Mary’s gone!
The lamb ‘maa’s at him in disdain.

Do women just disappear come adolescence?
Peter wonders, cast into a pit of despondence
No wonder Mama tells Georgie off for flirting
Anguished he stands, from the black magic of his courting
Lancelot and Guinevere, Marian and Hood
No, something's wrong here, something is misunderstood
An epic quest of chivalry, Peter sets out in search of Mary
The lamb bleats in disdain and follows.

On one spring evening when I was eight years old, I, Erica, Duke of Aurelia’s daughter, realized something.Huh, I have reincarnated into a fantasy world, haven’t I?Moreover, it was the romance-fantasy girl game that had the reputation of being bloody, 『Liber Monstrorum ~Phantom Beasts and the Winter Princess~』The face reflected in the mirror was that of the villainess character of that game.After repeatedly harassing many characters, including the heroine, she would die without exception, signaling the beginning of an event called the bizarre incident.

Return to Yesterday
This is a story about trust. A story about a girl with many names, none of which were hers, and a single second that wasn't really a second at all. It's a story about a friendship that shouldn't have been trusted but was, and a friendship that should have been trusted but wasn't. And most of all, this is a story of warning. Of a path that was taken when no other was seen, through a forest that can grow in an instant and may never fully be cleared. No two paths are the same. Nor are any two forests. But this is Io's path. And this is where it goes. (Also published on Quotev)
