I do not own anything nor do I make any money from this story. All rights apply.
A/N: The lovely Sinnatious has graciously allowed me to write in The Fifth Act world. I highly recommend The Fifth Act – it is beautifully written with great characterisation and a neat, well paced plot.
While plotting and planning the story, a different muse struck…
THE 5TH ACT POEM
A glimpse of a future never to be
The anguish and loss only he can see
.
A new path to walk, full of the dead
They live beside him, not in his head
.
Heroes they remain at the end of the day
Only he had the price to pay
.
A mistake, a fluke, a second chance
An action so small, the ripples so vast
