When I Woke Up This Morning



When I woke up this morning,

I felt that something was amiss

I couldn't quite put my finger on it,

But I figured, "Later I'll know what it is."

I walked out of my room

And down to the training hall.

I opened the door to find Migel and Gatti

In the middle of a fencing brawl.

I made a noise, and when they turned,

Their swords fell to the ground with a clatter.

They received two slaps and double duty

When they wouldn't tell me what was the matter.

I paused those cat girls in the hall

They, blanched, giggled, then scampered off.

I never could stand those hairballs anyway-

I decided to leave with a scoff.

Refina appeared, drying her hair-

She'd just come out of the shower.

She saw me and screamed, her face gone red,

Then ran off to hide in the girl's dorm tower.

I looked at my face in a mirror in the hall

But I couldn't see anything wrong.

Just my beautiful, dashing, well-groomed self

...Well, maybe my hair was a little long....

Not in a good mood (which didn't say much)

I found myself face to face with Chesta and Viole.

Chesta grew a rather interesting shade of red,

While Viole fainted in dismay.

I scowled when I saw another slayer in the hall;

I really didn't feel like dealing with Dalet.

He got a black eye and a bleeding nose

Because today he dared find me a riot.

After leaving the still giggling Dalet in the hall,

I sat down in my throne room.

But it was all wrong, and I didn't know why-

Something was ruining the gloom.

Finally desperate, I went to see Folken

To see what he would say.

He looked at me and then turned around- laughing??

And said "Have you looked in the mirror today?"

I snarled at him, then ran to my room,

Was there a spot on my shirt??

I looked in the mirror and almost died of shock-

I had on my purple shirt with a frilly pink skirt.

Enraged, I stormed out of my quarters,

Throwing off the disgusting garb.

I fumed the whole way without meeting a soul-

They were probably hiding but laughing hard.

I headed towards Folken to make him make her stop-

How dare she do this to ME?

But Celena took over when I got there,

And left giggling merrily.

To add to insult, she went out

And flirted with all my men.

When I woke up, she'd been glomping Folken-

I never want to do that again....

That was my day- it was horrible, but I'm ok.

The men know better than to mention the past.

I'm glad it was only the dress and Celena though-

I was afraid they found my bishojo book stash!





*An old poem, not very good, but something to put up, right? I dunno, can't you just see Dilandau sitting in his room, curtains closed, door locked, reading a bishojo manga? I think they're a couple of gag doujins with him reading them... Anyways, R/R if you want, I just wanted to get this off my desk. ~SLS~*
