(A/n: Hi guys! I just wanted to share a short poem written by Santi10847, my dad. He got pretty famous in his department for writing this story. And for the photo I used, it don't own it, either. As you can see, I got it from shuttershock. I hope you enjoy reading this ^_^ )

-------------------------------------------------------

Forlorn admist the endless stream of people and automobiles -

                   indifferent faces, pitiless faces; neon lights;

                    the godly and the godless, and the gods;

                            empty stomachs; jingling coins;

                                  tattered hopes; tomorrow,

                                                 uncertain.

One by one the pieces are stamped into the mosaic of a

never-world - a dream often dreamt.

Ti's a conspiracy of the body and the mind.


Beyond, far into the fringes of fantasy - 

         a realm of changing colors; chanting birds;

               neither hunger nor pain; swaying pines and

                      hundred springs; fortune; feathered couch

                             and ambrosia in a silver cup; even

                                   silence is a melody.

Time stands still as a soul numbed by life's uneding

struggles slowly slips into the soothing water of a

crystal pool ... slowly .

A pauper is once again a king.
