In the House of Shadows,There we were.Seventeen of us,A meeting, of sorts,A coming together, a merging,Of all our special talents.Some of us able to think odd thoughts,Some able to see betweenThe wind and the air,Some of us with no particular talent at all,Just there to even the number.Around midnight,There came a shout,From outside, in the…

As I was walking,Down the endless road,A road that led to nowhere,A road with no beginningAnd no end,A grassy byway,With sorrow behind,And anger ahead,A vague description of a path,Lit by permanent twilight,As I was walking down this road,I saw many things,Creatures, animals maybe,Some real, many not,Things with huge eyes,Things with many teeth,Things with a seething…
