"Friend, tell Lacedeamon:
Here I lie,
obedient to my orders.
Oh stranger, tell the Spartans:
I lie here obedient to their word.
Oh stranger, tell Lacedeamon:
(...He's my guildmaster, he'll know what you mean.)
True, even to my death,
to the Spartan way of...
...Oh come on, people.
Seriously guys, just rez me already.
She fed black ravens from the fortress ramparts,
though she was on 3x AP.
Among the mightiest in battle,
but alas, she was having connection issues or something.
Oh mighty lady, our guide -- to have
in heaven, at our side.
Unto thy vast everlasting,
a set of breasts I mean
braents
I mean
...Can I start over?
I have given to the goddess Sulis Morrighan the paycheck which I have lost.
And all I got was this lousy t-shirt.
...That's it; no more gach for me.
Ever with grief
and far too long,
are giants and elves
set upon each other.
But yet we may place
our blades aside,
and live in--
*WINDMILL SMASH!*
...goddamnit, giantess."

[S]Hi I tried[/S]
It began with glowing words in a darkened car-
"Mabinogi"
It began in a quiet old town,
A languid stream rolling past,
Through a field of foxes brown,
Through a plain where many had passed.
It begins with one
With the courage to find friends
Comrades fresh out of their recruitment gear,
Through distant lands full of unknown,
Through shadowy dungeons, riddled with fear
And glorious warmth wherever the sun shone.
One becomes two, three,
A group to do things together
The nameless become legendary
Carved upon time-worn seals,
Left behind their legacy
And the rest for time to reveal.
A group becomes a community
Bound in fate and memory

It just came to me suddenly, sorry for mental damage:
For Nao
I thought I was a goner,
Then an Angel poped up.
She had, like an E cup
And [S]I got a bo[/S] helped me up.

*sigh* This ended up a lot longer than I planned. Then again, that's par for the course with me, isn't it...? Hope it's not too long.
Boys and girls of every race
You've come upon a worthy place!
Be ye Danaan or Milletian
You'll find me a jovial friend
Erinn is filled both far and wide
With tales most sure to split the side
Thus, gather 'round, as I spin this
The True Tale of the Chicken Fist!
Long ago with goals unclear
My tale began in humble Tir
My level low, my gold deplete
With cheapest leather on my feet
Hens, foxes, yes, but not one cow
The only milk source there was Nao.
I was as lonely as could be.
Only my weapon spoke to me!
The wolves nearby tore me asunder
And soon I came to learn of hunger
Of need for wealth and exp
And loss of durability!
Ah, woe was me! For death came quick
And then as though a magic trick
My clothing fell upon the grass
Beneath revealed a shapely lass!
Thought I, "Must solve this problem fast!"
I gathered up my clothing free
To dress upon me dignity
As I looked yonder from my perch
I saw Lymilark's holy church
A beggar I, with naught possessed
Approached the clergy most distressed
Determined not to be a leech
A fair day's wage did I beseech
And thus Endelyon did preach!
"O, poor beggar, thou hast not much
And 'tis my heart thine plight doth touch
Fear not, dear soul, thou needst not beg
Just bring to me coveted egg
From ample hen out in the fold
And thou shalt find reward in gold!"
I gave my thanks, traveled anon
My first hen soon happened upon!
A thought exploded, like a keg
"How do I get hen to lay egg!?"
This question one would think she could
have answered for me to do good
Not to be deterred by this slump
I placed my self near that hen's rump.
Weapons would be no use to me
I removed them so hands were free
I squatted down, loosened my wrist
Then balled my hand into a fist!
And yet the hen did not resist...
So far so good, I thought and then
As my fist went into that hen
And searched inside for unborn kin
Upon my face formed twisted grin
An egg appeared upon that grass
My bad luck soon would come to pass
The hen and I had great rapport
Now to collect from her four more!
When I finished I returned hence
But my reward was zero pence
The nun thought me a monkey's daughter
Must have, for she gave holy water
Her flock I now wished I could slaughter!
I was too hungry to feel wrath
Too dirty to bitterly laugh
Since water now I did possess
I took a swig and then a bath.
Afterwards, I did suppose
That I needed to wash my clothes
And then behold as clothes got wet
A holy shine did they beget
At that point, I thought "Holy shet!"
Endelyon explained to me
"Holy Water has use to thee!
Protects thine clothes from bringing shame
Extends their use in life's cruel 'game,'
Thy donned 'quips now, for blessed be,
Best regain durability
Enchanted pieces thou canst burn
Young beggar, thou hast much to learn!"
And so given a learning lash
I found a way to make some cash!
I returned to that gentle hen
And proclaimed, "Let the games begin!"
But as soon as my fist was in
"It's cruel to keep fisting this hen!"
The suddenness left me struck dumb
Where did this random voice come from?
And yet the hen had dropped nothing
Within my head a voice did sing,
"Fool! Do you think infinite egg
Will come from this hen if you beg?
'Tis not the only hen's behind
From which eggs you will surely find!"
So I moved on, found many hen
Deprived them of unproven kin
To make my holy water stasis
And soon I was on first name basis
With every hen in humble Tir
Both young and old, both far and near!
When you are poor, remember this!
Make money with your chicken fist!

The winners have now been announced (keep in mind if you weren't selected, don't take it personally as I have no idea how to properly grade poems!)!
Burningsky was the grand prize winner, and three runner ups were chosen. To the winners, bare in mind if you want to buy the new icons in the shop they will be taken out tomorrow or late tonight depending on what's convenient for Osay :)
