Where is
I want
Holy crap. THIS is what I need! I’m so sick of tripping over the DVD’s all over my floor because they won’t fit in my crappy little cabinet any more, haha.
So, I just listened to the Iain Lee interview with Peter and had two main thoughts:
My Monkee Fan Brain was saying “That was an awesome interview, it covered everything it should have with respect and fondness and Iain should be the only person allowed to interview the guys ever again.”
While my Torksmith Brain was saying “Did Peter just say he had affection for Mike?! DID THAT JUST HAPPEN!?!” XD
But seriously, it’s sad that it had to be under such circumstances but I’m glad they are building bridges to some degree, whether there was really unresolved sexual “tension” there or not.
Not So Different - A Poem
So, this is my submission for the Art of Deduction book that is hoping to raise awareness of the Save Undershaw campaign. I’m still tweaking it (and seriously hoping it’s not too long because I can’t bear to edit it!) but would be grateful for any feedback before I properly submit it! I am not a poet and haven’t written any poetry in years but this just came out of the blue.
Not So Different
We’re not so different, he and I,
One a healer, one a spy,
One an assassin, a hunter by trade,
The other a doctor, deliverer of aid.
Both in the service of country and Queen,
Sent home by a bullet and scandal unseen,
Both returned home with wounded pride,
Seeking new purpose, this Jekyll and Hyde.
He made an acquaintance, a man of repute,
Whose intelligent workings I cannot dispute.
They formed an alliance, unlikely but strong,
At his side he had hope of a place to belong.
My sharp-shooting talents had not been ignored,
Soldier turned mercenary; trust, my reward.
A chance at a glimpse into London’s great mind,
This criminal maestro, this one of a kind.
A shadowy game between the two,
Schemes were plotted and foiled anew,
And all the while we lay in wait,
To clean up the mess they were bound to create.
Miles were travelled to lead us to here,
This wide-open landscape, this valley of fear,
We watched as he sauntered, so devil-may-care,
But all of us sensed there was death in the air.
I was ordered to wait, concealed in a nook,
So there I remained above that rich brook.
But the doctor retreated, kept in the dark,
Denied the duty of playing his part.
The thought of failure never entered my head,
As I witnessed them fall, my gut filled with dread.
Then to see that wretch crawl up from the edge,
My blood did boil and I made this pledge:
For as long as I lived, I would track this man down,
Not a care for his talents or worthy renown.
Then I spied as he fled the dear doctor’s return,
And was struck by his sorrow, a sickening burn.
I wondered right then, if he were me,
The lengths he would go to to make the pain flee.
Would he punish the villain and undo the good?
In seeing his grief I believe that he would.
The pain that he feels is akin to my own,
But the tears that he sheds are but his alone.
Both in the shadows of two great men,
One armed with a rifle, the other a pen,
Tools to avenge the ones they once served,
Yet only the one is justly deserved.
We’re not so different, he and I,
Both are mourners, one is a lie.
