《Strange world》From one to nine
Advertisement
One cross crow shrieks
Squawks, caws, swoops sharply down at my bare head
Perches calm, on lowest branch of nearby tree, to stare at me
Two tiny terriers tug taut leads
Doggy daycare dame, all uncaring, stomps along
Just a job — she robots on, ear-budded, rapt inside her screen
Three masked women murmur, coo, cradle cappuccinos
Select best seats with practiced care beneath striped café canopy
Now — fingers twitch faceward, pause, cups steam
Up? Down? Off? What to do? O! What to do?
Four old old men, all sporting canes, stand shaky
shouting by the bank — loud rage builds quick, slow fades
you round the corner as they move apart, walk on
Then sudden blur of motion, sound — feeblest turns back!
attacks anew — near death all four but not, it seems, that near
Five cats on view today — one stealthy, garden prowling sleek
One stretched out dreamy-creamy on sun-warmed stairs
Two gazing at each other, or glaring? lost in dark feline world
One talking prettily to me through too-high fence
(we both are sad, perhaps, that she can't come to me)
Six small eggs on offer at the market
Container torn in half, yolky smears, rough trade incident implicit
Six dollars for six eggs! How?
Seven a.m. — seven hours since midnight, all full of painful dream
Rise up! Rise up to meet a world without meeting
Greet a day with no-one greeting
Eight red-and-white carnations left, erect in old tin bucket by the till
Corner store temptation as St Valentine draws near
But . . . all those perfumed memories
too sad, maybe? while you wonder
someone wiser leans down, takes them — now they're gone
Nine pretty pigeons
Perch so high in white-blue sky
Gripping far-up power lines
Brief silent thanks for sudden sun

Ode to Fallen Angels
Jericho, the land of humanity, squirms in pain. Magic has been forbidden for so long in this so called "Age of Silence", that all Arcane knowledge has been presumed lost and irrecoverable, and the echoes of God's Will grow fainter with every passing year. The sight of Demihuman caravans is less frequent every day, as the likes of orcs and elves have learned to no longer beg for help from those who despise them. Clearly, they can expect more from the voracious wild lands than from humankind. Many have succumbed to despair, some driven mad by their fruitless efforts to bring back a Golden Age that they only ever read about in books. And in the middle of it all, in an old chapel lost in the Eastern lands, young Gabrielle lives in complete ignorance. She is another orphan living under the mercy of the Church of the Saints; one bearing the mark of evil in her red hair, the telltale sign of a Witch. In an Age of the Silent, the Prejudiced, and the Hateful, she clings to a single hope: that one day, be it in life or maybe after it all ends, she may find herself forgiven of her sin. The sin of being born.
