Silver Spirit Fox

I bid you fair warning young maiden,

My glass is as deep as my charm.

I'll drink to the dawns,

to the skies and the swans,

and not falter in wit or arm.

Come hither I call you fair maiden,

Should your mind be a cloudy sweet bee.

I'll dance with you gone,

together, anon,

and be gone before you will see.

Step lively around me sweet maiden,

I know not what this drink may do.

I've been known to bite,

at height of dark night,

and glisten at the morning dove's coo.

Together now we stand drunk maiden,

I'll support you until our soft end.

Something's awake,

with lots at stake,

and now it is you I defend.

Rest well tonight my hurt maiden,

We made it through this fight

Though fierce it had been,

you know not my kin,

and I shan't let you out of my sight.

Arise to the morning my maiden,

This journey is just the beginning.

Our road is a long one,

with little that's done,

and a path that we're creating.


This poem bloomed because I really just wanted to study Kurama's character for his demon side and if he had ended up in a situation such as above with a different way of learning love. In this poem, what went through my mind was Kurama ending up at a bar in his youko form in human world and meeting Shizuru for the first time. He gets a bit tipsy and they head back to his 'place' getting attacked by demons on the way suffice to say its' Shizuru/Kurama. I was merely trying to find out a bit more about his character in my head and although I would love the Shizuru/Kurama pairing, it's nowhere so I chose to throw that in. Either way I own none of them so I can't make my fantasies come true. [Disclaimer]
