《Sonnets》71. The Forgone Conclusion
Advertisement
Hustle begins in the center of your heart
the small pump that drives all of our lives.
That ball of muscle is a damn work of art
as it continues pumping fast and survives.
Between our ears is another stunning organ
that can be both our greatest ally and enemy.
Minds commit acts of genius again and again
as they make us all unique I’m sure you’ll agree.
We take our health and very lives for granted
for every day we continue to abuse our bodies.
We’re given bad ideas, they’re firmly implanted
as we forget time is quite limited, we’re not trees.
There’s a fine line between acceptance and delusion
making death no more than a foregone conclusion.

A Gray and Grey world
What if adventurers are not as they seemed. In the tales of old, adventurers were the ones who vanquished the demons and beasts from the land, the ones who sealed the great evil away, the ones who saved the world from destruction and kept peace within the lands. But, what if that wasn't really what happened? What if adventurers are selfish, narcissicistic, and- depending on who you ask- evil. What if they weren't the paragons of good that their history books show. As they say, it is the victors that write history. In this world, this broken world, the true nature of adventurers will be told, unveiled to the masses. In this world, where history has yet to be written, the true heroes will be shown. Or- at least, that's what should've happened. But then again- heroes, villains-... everything is relative to the one who sees it. Everything changes depending on who's perspective... Perhaps the heroes of this story- may not be the heroes that you might think. Author : Hello everyone! I just want you all to know that this is a first time story. I'm the one who's doing the draft, editing, proofreading and revisioning! I do aim to have a chapter up every week or so, thus I look forward to showing everyone the world I created!Editor : ^ Proof Reader : ^
